okay just ordered an alarm

i know, i should make up my mind.

first tires
then front end kit,
and now an alarm.


i didnt get the frontend kit cause if i'm gonna do that, i might as well replace the spindles at the same time, since 1 needs replaced.



anyway... i ordered a viper 790xv from a dealer on ebay.

So what type of alarm are you planning on getting? My son is at the same stage you are, lowered w/ drop spindles, finishing bodywork, an getting ready for paint, new wheels are in but he needs an alarm so I was wondering which one you prefer to protect your investment.

You're going to get the 3" DJM spindles, right? From Summit for $250.

Just take your time and hide the wires really well and youll be fine. So you are going to add keyless (actuators) and then add power locks later? why even add them later?

Not that model no, I havent done that work as a job in a few years. They are pretty straight forward on the install though.
