Had my alarm installer put one in my Viper system. Worked well for about 1 year, then, of course, with the warranty done, the siren malfunctioned (see previous reviews of people with this problem also). Thankfully it was inexpensive, so I purchased another, and will keep my fingers crossed. The horn is quite a bit louder than the stock horn that comes with the alarm itself, so I am giving it another chance... so far, not impressed with DEI electronics, as I have a window module that may be faulty as well...

Installed one new on my Viper 2 way system. It flaked out on me a few months later... in a really bad place. Imagine a siren whaling under the hood of your vehicle as you pull up to a security checkpoint @ a VERY large US Army base. Not good. I was able to disable w/the key, thankfully. Restored it to "on" when I was off base.... lasted another 3 months before it did it again... and wouldn't turn off... or stop after I ripped it out & smashed it against the ground :(

It is inexpensive though - I purchased another a couple weeks ago. Hopefully it won't make me look like a thief either :(

You really can't try this product out until your battery wire is cut. But you can turn the key and hear how loud the siren is.
