How much will a Clifford system cost? I know there are many models and all but what is a general price range?

Intelliguard 750 or higher G5 is the best alarms for Clifford. Why because they have better features in protecting your car. All the Matrix series and Viper 2 way Responder Alarms are just entry level alarms.

Martix alarms are easy to install and easy to bypass. The 750 has a starter and ignition kill. The intelliguard is a little more difficult to install and harder to find a place that will do it for you. There are many features to install for this system. The wireless immobilizer which can cut off your fuel line. Digital tilt sensor to detects even minor lifting or rolling of the vehicle ( in case someone tries to jack up the car.) The basic install cost about $450. The extra features vary between places but around 100 for each feature. If you want a good alarm get a Matrix, if you want a great one get the Intelliguard.

Hope this info helps everyone.

i would say that all you need is a decent alarm with a back up battery, ignition kill, and fuel kill. everything else should just be layered security features. i mean, if someone really wants your car, they'll just steal it. :x

Hey do you think the blackjax from clifford will work if I have a viper 791 too?

Blackjax on the Viper 791

The blackjax doesnt work on the viper 791, I think you have to get any of the Clifford G5 to use it. Also I think the blackjax is a pain the butt. You have to punch in a code everytime you get in your car and when you open and close the door. Most guys get tired of it and uninstall it. So it's really up to you.

well it would only need to be punched in if the car is started right?

I also have an itr in miami. I put in a clifford at cartronics. You can't be too careful with that car, it's in high demand. Entering the special code is no big deal, it becomes automatic. I only ever accidentially set it off when I'm getting gas and it auto-arms. the 4000 series has dual engine disablers in addition to the stock disabler. For the $400 the system cost (installed) I would expect it to have proximity, but you'll have to settle for a dual stage alarm but the best part is the remote is in matching carbon fiber to the dash.
