so i still for some dumb reason have the stock/factory alarm system.

the alarm has been ok so far...the remote has given me problems before but i think it was due to some humidity...it stopped working one day and the next day was ok...

the other day however i had the same problem, only no water had gotten in it...
the horn has always had a problem, it beeps only when it feels like it which is one a month...but since the other day it chirps about 80 percent of the time now...weird...my question is...could there b an electrical problem?

when the car is off the inside lock/unlock switches dont work, wt the car on they work fine. before when i pressed the unluck key on the remote the blinkers wouldnt blink...now oddly they do...and it also chirps, not always but way more frequently...im thinkin its finally time to get rid of it...but i just wanna make sure i wont hav any problems wt the compu star i wanna get. another question ..why dont the lock/unluck buttons on the doors work when the car's off? its always been that way but not its catchin my attention. i had another but i forgot cause i typed so much crap..sorry

 

ah my other question is if i get an aftermarket alarm, compu star for example, will the hids blink with the blinkers whenever it goes offf??

i hate it when the alarm sets off cause they blink too

 

im sure you could get the installer or whoever to wire up the system so that it will blink the corner lights.

 

mine don't...but if the stock alarm is triggered they might flash.

 

Most aftermarket alarms systems have a "parking light flash" feature, like my old Viper 300 ESP did. I don't know how the factory alarm works on 02/03, so I can't comment on the HID's being flashed. Like someone else has already said, just have the install wire it up the way you want it. The parking light flash is just done with a relay, so if the headlights are connected, they can just as easily be disconnected.
