    And on the VIII and IX I thought Mistubishi didn't offer factory alarms, just keyless entry?
    That's the prob. I don't know who installed it, I bought the car with it.

    You would have an extra dangly thing on your keyring.
    I know that's probably why the previous owner installed this alarm system.

    the alarm might shutoff when you turn the car to "on". Test it out and post a vid

    There is a vallet button under your dash.Â* It is used to cycle through alarm settings also.Â* You have to hold it down for like 10 seconds to kill the alarm.Â* This info is from my Clifford RSX-3.5

    But generally my keyfob beeps at me for 4-5 days before it dies. Plenty of time to replace the battery.
