Hi all

I am getting an alarm installed on the JK 2012...
I know it has a factory one ,but no shock sensor or 2 way remote.
Does anyone see any issues to install an aftermarket alarm?

If you're not doing remote start the 3305V is OK.

I like the 3303V (2000ft range) better and the 5704V (1 mile range) if its an automatic and you want remote start.

 

Hi there

Dont really care for Remote start..and its a 6 spd manual

is the 350 good though?

 

It's pretty good and capable to upgrade. Most people with Jeeps add a prox sensor for interior security that makes the unit even better. The 2 way makes it nice to not actually have to see the vehicle to know if its locked, unlocked or if your alarm is going off.

 

Just put in a Audiovox Prestige APS997C Car Alarm/Remote Start in my 2010 Jeep....

I park in a bad part of St. Louis so wanted something that would page me if it went off, made some noise a maybe scared the person off... With a softtop, its a quick slash and grab...

I wired in the lights, horn and siren. Paging keyring works pretty good, went off the other day, tells me what door is open or hood or whatnot.....
Came with a sensor to set off if someone touchs it (and its pretty touchy)
Also has remote start but Im not using it, and a hood pin sensor

Wires were a little overwhelming at first. Watch a few videos and used some sites like Vehicle wiring diagrams to help me find the wires to tap in....

Took me a few hours but in the end... I have a alarm installed. The Blue leds for the alarm "armed" is pretty nice too....

I only picked this alarm because I did a google search and one under this was rated highly... This one gave the better remotes so I went with it. Not a bad unit for $110.00
