I used a bulldog unit from walmart. It doesn't have an alarm, however that makes it a lot easier to install. Plus it doesn't 'just go off' ever.

It was pretty easy to do, I did it about 3 years ago and just followed the instructions. If you have a 5 Speed, be very careful about the Remote start or don't use it. My 5M started up with the parking brake on and pushed in a brick wall.

Most important suggestion is to figure out everything then install it somewhere, so that it won't move around. Above the drivers feet is really tight.

I got a universal remote doorlock kit of ebay for cheap, it was a universal kit and was kind of a pain to install. Not too bad...I put the module under the glovebox and ran wires to the doors and under the steering column for lights and horn.

Overall turned out good, and will definitely be worth it...i hate having to wait for the passenger to get out, or have to tell them to hold the door handle.

I installed a alarm/remote start in the Celipra about 2 years ago. I have it wired so if the doors, hatch, hood, or if it gets hit hard enough the alarm will go off. I also put in a remote opener for the hatch also. Installation was not that hard once I figured out where everything went and "translated" the horrible "engrish" to where everything from the alarm box was suppose to go.

Never did bother with wiring in the horn, or the interior lights coming on when I unlock the car, but everything else works.
