I am in the process of considering/designing my own car alarm. I have a few
suitable computers (RS model 100,  AIM 65, KIM) sitting around, and I'm
also looking at units available, sensors, etc.

Topic for discussion...
I would be interested in anyone's experience with: 

	ignition kill 
	thieves managing to disable alarms 
	cheapo alarms that didn't work 
	shock sensors
	glass break (sound discriminators) 
	backup battery systems
	remote radio (arm/disarm) units
	paging units

... and other clever additions to the basic theme of home brew auto security.
