Well,I'm about to plink down some hard bucks on an Abyss Vibe.The vehicle,that was located,has,just about all options.One of the missing,is the factory alarm.Is there anyone else out there,who is/was alarmless,and what have you done to rectify the option?Did you have an alarm installed by the dealer or someone else.Or,have you decided against any alarm.

According to http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=3053 , all Vibe's come with the alarm module. Therefore, it shouldn't be too difficult to add the alarm in, if you decide that you need/really want it.Although I didn't go looking for the security system, it was on there. I haven't needed it yet !

I added my own alarm system myself. I didn't want to pay the astronomical price of the factory alarm. I spend $150 for a remote engine car starter and alerm combo.

I put my own alarm in as detailed here http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=2154 Major pain in the *(&^$ to do w/o the wiring info which is in the above thread now.Sub's alarm is detailed here http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=1705 If it is possible to plug in a factory system, that is the way I would go now I have gone through installing an aftermarket one.Good luck.
