    The driver side window of my PIP was bashed in Friday evening, and about $1500 in belongings were stolen (including my purse that was hidden under the driver seat). Does anyone have an alarm ont their PIP with a glass sensor? If so, how effective has it been at deterring theft and how much did it cost? Thanks!

    I'm very sorry to hear of your intrusion!

    With so many false alarms going of these days, like every time someone taps a bumper while parking, etc., I wonder if alarms do any good at all.

    And welcome to PC:)

    Tint your windows and park the vehicle in a visible area when parking in public. I didn't upgrade my alarm like I did on my HCH.

    If you find an alarm that works with the PiP tech, I would be interested in hearing.
