I have a 2002 Ford Ranger FX4 that I'm interested in installing a security system in. I was curious to see what you all think is the best alarm to install in it and what type of problems I may run into during the install process.

Thanks,

Dan

Well the truck came with a keyless entry module. Things it does is unlock/lock the doors, when you press the lock button 2 times it'll honk the horn 1 time if all doors are shut and 2 times if one is slightly ajar... I really like that, but don't know if it's still an option after I install an alarm unit.. The stock system has the domelight supervision thing. The domelight comes on when you hit the unlock button on the remote - also a nice feature.

I would like to find an alarm that can handle the above or most of it, plus I want to be able to put in a hood pin, and somehow put a switch on thee rear sliding window. Remote start is not really needed because this is a manual transmission.

I'm just looking for a solid alarm that will preform the above and of course the "standards", such as dual stage shock etc. Any questions please let me know.

Thanks,

Dan
