It shouldn't give you peace of mind. Nobody responds to car alarms, other than the car's owners.

The only time da fuzz responds is when someone calls or they drive by it.

The alarm your referring too is a panick alarm...I presume you have the power package...look at your key,the red button is for that purpose.If you see a clown by your car press-it...beep,beep,beep!.

so not true.. And you don't need to post the same thing 3 times to get your point across.

People aren't going to run over and investigate at the first sound of an alarm, but if someone is acting shady around a car going off, you can bet people will call the cops and/or stop the person. I personally know two people who have had people break in to their car, and the thieves were caught because of the alarm.

Why do you think car insurance companies give discounts for car alarms? Because they like giving away money?

Rolling your windows up and locking your doors only adds about 1.5 seconds to the time needed to steal from you. An alarm is an actual deterrent.
