You might be under the impression that your factory alarm is all you need to protect your vehicle and the belongings inside. Unfortunately this is not always the case, factory alarms are meant to protect your vehicle from being stolen or driven without your consent(keys). The factory alarm system will do very little in protecting the valuables inside of your vehicle.

If someone was to break your window and steal something from your front seat your factory alarm will not help as long as the thief never opens the door the alarm won’t activate. It’s also very common for trunks to not be tied to the factory alarm system. It wouldn’t take much time for a thief to break your window, open the trunk and then take everything from your trunk without ever setting off the factory alarm.
Aftermarket Alarms have additional sensors and triggers that can keep your vehicle and your additional investments protected. If your vehicle is ever lifted while armed the alarm will activate and prevent someone from stealing your rims or towing your vehicle. If glass breaks the alarm listens for the frequency at which broken glass vibrates and activates the alarm. If you live an a busy apartment complex and don’t want people hanging around your vehicle a proximity sensor can warn nearby pedestrians to step further away from your vehicle. Lastly if an advanced thief attempts to disconnect your battery in order to gain access to your vehicle most aftermarket alarms include battery backups and sirens with built in batteries that will activate immediately. With an aftermarket alarm you can have peace of mind that your vehicle and the additional investments you have made are protected.
Along with alarms, immobilizers and GPS tracking systems can be paired together to protect your vehicle in the chance that it is stolen. An immobilizer can interrupt your vehicles starting system or combustion system. This creates a condition where your vehicle won’t start for a thief no matter how advanced there skills are. A common method to implement an immobilizer is to use a starter relay immobilizer. Adding this method of protection will not allow your car to start unless the condition you set is met. This will make it so only you can start the vehicle, even if the factory key is used without your condition being satisfied the vehicle will not start.
If your car is stolen with a tow truck you can use a GPS tracking system to locate it. GPS tracking systems can be found almost anywhere online but when your vehicle is stolen and you need to find it you need to be sure that your GPS tracking system is accurate and reliable.
