So for various reasons, I've decided to retain my factory car alarm on my 2015 Kia Optima with smart key. Now I need to focus on beefing up this alarm. As far as I know, it simply monitors the doors/trunk. Opening one of these up while alarmed will set the car horn beeping and disable the ignition.
I'm thinking of adding the following to the door trigger so that when one is set off, it will fool the alarm into thinking the door has been opened and set off the alarm.
1) Window breakage sensor.
2) Tow sensor.
3) Interior movement sensor (I tend to leave windows open).
Am I missing anything really important?
Is there a quality difference between the various sensors I might find on Amazon Prime?

Interior movement sensor.
I''m not sure but you may have compatibility problems adding ANY aftermarket sensor.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.
