from basic 1-way alarm to high-end gps/gsm alarm with tracking capability.

your budget I suggest you go for Viper, Phython or Clifford alarm system, you will get satisfied, trust me.

 

[3SGE]

does the remote of those Radiostar, Viper, Phython or Clifford brand have a small screen?

 

[TRDtezza]

i'm using clifford matrix 5 . so far its ok. reception range is pretty good as well... within your range of price. and everything you mentioned above with additional 4 aux settings.. mine is set to opening the hood , bonnet , headlights , autostart , viper and power windows .

 

[nematoth]

For best build quality and after sales support I'd recommend the Cobra alarm.. They're at TTDI just along the main road from 1 Utama..

clifford also have good coverage of after-sales service, can go back to re-configure the settings if the module u bought is configurable. They are also at TTDI/Damansara Utama there if not mistaken..

bro, whether the remote has screen or not depends on what type of alarm you want. There are two types of alarm in the market:

• 1-way alarm - You communicate with the alarm only, send signals for it to arm, disarm, trunk lift, etc.
• 2-way alarm - You communicate with the alarm as well as the alarm communicate to you. The alarm will send signal to your car for arm / disarm status, sensor triggers, trunk lift confirmation, etc.

2-way alarm will be more expensive than 1-way since it has more functions, and most of 2-way alarm has LCD screen.

clifford, viper also offer 2way alarm with remote of screens and without screen also got.
