Alarms???

I went to Car Toys to look at some alarms today and I decided to buy the Python 1000, it came close to $300. Does anyone have an opinion about this brand?? Advise?? What do you use? (I havent made a purchase yet, i'm suposed to get it installed tomorrow)

I'm not familiar with the Python, but I've got a Viper 550ESP. Couldn't he happier with it. My car's never had anything done to it, but there have been a couple of times when I've come back and the alarm had gone off... I'm hoping it deterred someone from doing something they shouldn't have. Also, it locks the doors when I start the car and unlocks automatically when I turn it off... very cool. It's all about the install though, make sure you've got a good shop with certified installers doing the work, or else even a $1000 alarm won't protect much.

I believe Python is apart of DEI, though not as 'big' as Cliffords and Vipers. I will personally go with Clifford since I've heard of nothing but good things about them and I can get one installed for $300 as well. And didnt you just get your Civic a few days ago? You should check out DEI's site and do some comparisons. Wouldnt want to spend that much loot and find out you wanted something better. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Viper and Python are both DEI. They are the cheaper ones to buy, but they are still good. If I had a choice, I would buy a clifford. If you really need one, email me or PM me, I can hook you up with some poeple at Soundtrack.
I got screwed into getting the VIP system with the celica that was a $500 option.
