Stock alarm question

[sticckz]

Does anyone kno if the alarm will go off if the trunk is forced open..?
..i kno it will sound if your door is open..
...apparently some thief's have hit my quiet neighborhood..
two of my nieghbors were victims, one of the rear seating of a tahoe
and the other of a lancer had his subwoofer's stolen..
i'm highly concerened, especially because i myself have two 12" L7
if the alarm doesn't sound..i must upgrade it..
appreciate any thoughts

im not sure if this helps but i had my car locked (alarm on) and poped the trunk with the remote and my alarm went off.

does This happens all the time you open your trunk with the remote?
..my alarm never engages when i open the trunk with the control even if the alarm has been set

climb in your trunk, close the lid, arm your car, and pop the trunk open with the safety release handle in the trunk. i would imagine it should set off your alarm. or atleast it will answer your question.

i've only tried to pop the trunk once with the doors locked and the alarm on so Im assuming it happens all the time - but you know what they say about assuming --- ill test it and let you know.

Ha! I love the image of the guy jumping out of the trunk on the handel.

I love how he is just sprinting away form the car. Like he's been in there for months.
