About to have a Viper 791 installed....

Pretty much decided on the Viper, has everything I want (that I know of) and a good rep, everywhere I look. Install at Tweeter with the following options:

1) Prox sensor
2) trunk
3) Key chip over-ride
4) Glass break sensor

That sound about right?

Questions for any security guru's, please?

1) Is a trunk add-on required? Seems they should be able to just copy the stock key fob code to the new unit?

2) Which would be better... a prox sensor or tilt and why? Both? I'm concerned about a bad guy towing it (seems to be the way in DFW these days), and the wheels getting ripped...

3) Key over-ride module necessary?

Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

i had that done to my 6th gen..viper 791..but i beleive you need a key module for the newer cars for the chip in the keys..and have to have a extra key inside the car always hiden with the key module..and BTW the alarm is extremly sensetive and loud..and the transmitter goes soo far..like 1 and half whole blocks away..
