Default Upgrading factory alarm

Is there any way to add motion sensors to the factory alarm, or would I have to go with a new system?

I saw an upgraded Mopar alarm system with motion sensors somewhere recently. I assume if you use this it would just be an upgrade.

Actually, I think I saw it in the dealer parts catalog when I was getting my oil changed last week. Call your parts department and have them look in the Mopar catalog. They should be able to find it for you.

There are two systems to upgrade your Jeep with. EVS I, which is for vehicles with keyless entry, and EVS II, for vehicles without keyless entry. Both feature "perimeter'interior protection". EVS I is part number 82209992, and retails for $169.00. EVS II is part number 82209991 and retails for $219.00. Both part numbers are JK specific. More info at Mopar.com. They look like Plug and Play, but who knows you probably need a flash for $40.00...

What do you mean by "but who knows you probably need a flash for $40.00... " ???? I have the factory keyless entry option, and I have been wanting to try to upgrade the alarm but am worried about the warranty and screwing up the factory system, as well as the difficulty of the install. Another question would be does the upgraded system utilize the factory key for arming and disarming. Or will another key chain accessory be required?

Thanks
