OK the neighborhood where i live is starting to go down hill and unfortunately i can not move yet, don't have the money to do so. Its time for an alarm for the CB, I've been looking around and I can find a bunch of them but now reviews any one know of one that's reliable and fairly inexpensive?

Anything by dei -
I have an audiovox myself, its held up fine for 5 years so far. Personally I would rather have a cheap alarm with several inputs/sensors and more sirens, then an expensive one with minimal sensors and sirens.
Wire the brain to the doors/dome light to cover the doors. Do the same for the trunk light/switch. Add a hood pin. Hide the brain, sensors, sirens and wires the best you can. Good places for sirens can be in the fenders, under the dash (pain preferably), and if you haven't gutted the trunk, behind the panels. Maybe add a glass breakage and addition shock sensor, and if your worried about towtrucks get a tilt sensor. I would also see about instead of killing the starter, killing the fuel pump and/or ignition instead.
Also with the fuel/ignition kill, have it deactivate/kill the door lock switches on the interior, as a properly bent coat hanger can easily trigger them.
That should get you started. Supplimenting with manual kill switches could be a suitable alternative.
Good luck!

My car was equipped with a Clifford system as a dealer option and its still working with no problems after 20 years. I don't know if the company is still around, but if they are or you can find one secondhand, I'd go for it. Hope this helps.

Tilt feature is expensive, but def cool.. especially if u have sick wheels.. the slightest lift of your suspension the alarm will go crazy.

^^^ this... may be a little more for Viper alarms, but you get what you pay for.... the whole purpose of an alarm system is for safety... its like boosting a stock F22, just not worth itOriginally posted by redlined302 View PostViper has yet to fail me Have always been very happy with the quality and security of the Viper systems.Comment
