Learning car alarms

I second that. I would also recommend learning remote starters along with alarms since there is not much more work involved than installing just an alarm.

Very good point I forgot to make.  You only have about three of four more wires to do.

i agree with everyone. when i got my job as an installer all i did was decks, amps, and speakers and such for a loooooong time.i wanted to do alarms and i felt i was ready for something new. all the co-workers didnt think i was but when i went out and actually bought an alarm and did my own install i was ALOT more knowledgeable when it came to alarms and learned a hell of a lot because it was a remote start too. when i was stuck on somethin, sure i asked them for help, but i think i also earned a little more respect from them. i was more capable than what they thought.

damn it felt good too, nothing like doing the install yourself and knowing how it was installed. unlike someone else dropping there car off and not knowing how it was installed.

you get great satisfaction when you know you can do an alarm yourself. most people get overwhelmed with all them damn wires and are just not capable with doing an install.
