Re: No alarm system on my civic?

Does the car have an alarm or is it keyless entry.

Not standard equipment.

Look at the stickers on the doors you will not see ((( ))) only immobilizer.

My 2010 EX manuals says alarm goes off when door opened wo the key/remote, but still no motion sensing. Am afraid u gotta go with aftermarket for the whole package.

Re: No alarm system on my civic?

alarms were an option on 7th gens, they did not detect motion or vibration (at least the oem honda ones did not). The OEM ones for the 7th gen plug right in and cost about $140.

Re: No alarm system on my civic?

Honestly I had a full alarm for 10 years, half of the time I turned my motion sensors off because they would be triggered by cats, leaves falling, high winds etc, and I didn't want to be the annoying neighbor. If u park in rough neighborhoods, OK.

even in bad neighborhoods no one pays attention to them because they always go off, and most people have them haha

Re: No alarm system on my civic?

the best alarm is a basic shock sensor, set not very sensitive so only real alarms or thunder would trigger it, a completely different alarm siren than what you normally hear all the time, and dont keep valuables in the car. when someone looks inside, there should be nothing at all of interest. stock radio helps alot too cause then they wont think you have amps and subs in the back.

Re: No alarm system on my civic?

I hate those alarms what actually speak to you, " step away from the car!" I heard one once and it wasn't even an expensive car. I guess poor people have more stuff to protect?
