The "best" for you is the one that meets ALL of your needs.....including cost!

The rest is just a matter of opinion.....Myself, I wouldn't have a clifford on ANYTHING I own!

See....just my opinion

What I have is a old Avantguard 4... The car battery leaked and destroyed the siren. I was told today that it would cost about $120 to replace it. Whats the going cost on the AVG 5 system and what features does it have above the AVG 4 ?

There are four shops local to me that carry Clifford parts and they all are at the same price. Its a "Smart Siren 4" What ever that means ...... but if I can buy a new system for like $300-$400 ill just go that route...

DITTO...........

Also, some Alarms are so overrated that some of the CHEAPIES are just as good.

Your car is only as safe as the thief that wants it........

Its not the alarm, its the install. You can get the best (insert most expensive), but its not worth the box it came in if its not installed properly. And like mo12v said.... if they want it, they will find a way.

Of course.. I HATE ALARMS!! Might as well just have a fake flashing red light on your dash. IMO :)
