Customized car alarm

So, this is my first post, and I've already got ideas for many others, but I'm stumped on this one specific thing...

My '08 HB only came with a dealer cut replacement key, and no key-less entry fob, so I figured I'd just get an alarm system as well. Thing is, I want to do my own custom sound for the actual alarm itself. I was told by a couple of car audiophiles that there was an add-in module I could get that would work with other systems (i.e. Viper, Python, etc). I've scoured the internet for the last week trying to find said add-in, but the closest thing I've come to is discontinued (http://www.asianwolf.com/516l-dei-car-alarm.html). I also vaguely recall an episode of Pimp My Ride where Xzibit did a voice recording for a car alarm.

Also, does anyone have any experience with such add-ons?

Thanks in advance!

:edit: Lastly, can you do a custom sound for both the proximity sensor alarm AND the actual alarm?

That 516L is the correct part. We still stock it and a bunch of places online still have it. They also make a 516U but it only does pre-programmed messages.

Fantastic. Thanks for the reply. Shortly after I posted this, I found this: http://www.viper.com/ShopViperProduc...tegoryCode=106

Any input on the quality?
