sorry you had it stolen ! but its good to hear you found her.

Speaking of which, what recommendations for an alarm system for the z? Preferably something reasonably priced, if such exists. Any experience with alarm systems would be informative. Thanks, Victor.

I installed an alarm in an early '80s Honda Accord hatchback around 1989 or so and it was a MAJOR PITA!! It took 8 hours over two days to do and this was a basic system, no power window or lock actuators, no starter kill; just door, hatch, and hood trigger switches and a vibration sensor. I'm not sure if I will ever do that again, every car since I have just paid the guys at Custom Sounds to do it...and it gets done the right way.

Just my experience. Now granted this was when I was new to cars and audio (and the like) equipment. It would probably go quicker now that I know more.

an good alarm system?

I got my alarm system... from Alpine and it was $260 with installation, exterior, hood, trunk, window sensors, starter kill... etc etc.

So for $260 and only 5 hours of waiting.... it was worth it.

boy i'm so repeatative sorry

One of the best systems I've read about is a do it yourself-er. It was posted by someone on this site a little while ago. You can find the plans here http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&A=0059&P=1.
