Car Alarm for convertible, i need one Options

[obi1kinob]

I've used the search function but nothing really points out anything for convertibles. I mean I know its pretty high risk having a convertible already, and I know if someone wanted to there's nothing I can really do... but atleast I can deter most of the less talented thieves and be alarmed asap when something happens. My car is right by my window now.

btw one of those posts i read it was bad to leave your car off and in gear. why?

Obi, here's what you need for your vert alarm:

1) Starter kill
2) Proximity
3) See if you can rig some sort of alarm to go off when the hood is open- OR an alarm that when alarmed, won't let the hood be popped. (Right now, I can reach in and pop the hood with the alarm on..)
4) Trunk open alarm.

those are the two main things. Bonus items:

Remote start
Remote windows (this way, the windows are down for you to put the top down immediately when you get in the car)

Some things that are less important in a vert:

Window break alert (they'll go in through the roof..)
