Rich,

Don't let the stealer get you into paying them for the alarm system.  It's an
old Alpine which normally costs half that price in any car audio store.  For
$550 you can get almost top of the line Alpine system installed in a good car
audio / security store.  I had an Alpine SEC 8048 installed for $615 at Myer
Emco in Fairfax VA.  The 8048 is (was in 95) the top of the line Alpine security
system - read, a lot more features that the one offered by BMW dealers.  The
current 8058 is not much different than 8048.  I don't exactly know the Alpine
model of the security system BMW dealer sell, but it's middle of the line at
best and several years old at that.
