IMO, there's no need to get an expensive alarm -- no one's ever going to see it except the blinking lights and remote...

I agree. Personally I don't see the appeal of having a sensitive alarm. If a cat jumps on the hood of your car and sets off your alarm really it doesn't do anything. Cars that have really sensitive alarms IMO are more likely to be vandalized just for causing a loud scene.

shock sensor are designed more for if a window is smashed, the alarm will go off. If you don't want people around your car, you should get a microwave sensor, which can actually tell if somone might be standing to close to your car, which again is designed more for convertables so if someone sticks there hand in the car while the top is down, the alarm will go off..
