It is quite difficult in modern life to imagine a personal or company car without an alarm. Even if your city or village is quiet and calm, and only theft from private gardens is common among criminal incidents, it will still be calmer when your car is equipped with an alarm. How to install an alarm on a car on your own?
It is necessary
- - An alarm system purchased at any auto shop in your city;
- - set of tools;
- - knowledge of the basics of working with car electrical equipment.

Buy an alarm from the store. The choice is now vast. There are simple alarms, and there are whole anti-theft systems.
