all i need is just a shock sensor basically and nothing more. it is going on my jeep and is just to let me know if anyone wants a peek inside. i dont need door locks or anything else since it doesnt have power locks or a top in the summer time. what do you guys use?

i dont think you understand. my jeep isnt a pretty sight. it isnt a beater, but more of a toy that i beat on, which is in the process of being turned into a full blown rock crawler. i looked for the security section, but overlooked it and posted in the general section, my bad, move it if you want. power locks on a jeep with half doors isnt possible, since you dont have any room inside the door, they are only about an inch thick including the door panel inside. no windows in the door or anything. i really only bought the car because insurance on my daily driver (07 FJ) was way high and it would be cheaper to put me on a car with PL&PD and have two cars, than it would if i was strictly on my FJ. i save about 1300 bones every six months.

so now that you have an image of the vehicle you can understand my only desire is a basic system, incase of some curious punk that wants to take a peek. it is so easy to get into one, but it will just keep the honest ones honest.

You won't find an alarm system that doesn't include power lock options, but you don't have to hook them up. I'd recommend a Viper 350HV; it has a built-in shock sensor. I'd also buy a 508D sensor, which is what you need to protect the inside of a Jeep with the top down.
