Thinking of going with a DIY installation of a wireless alarm system? Can a regular Joe like myself do this?
The company who supplies and offers the monitoring gives free support over the phone and assists you that way in the installation process. They tell me that anyone can install these with their assistance but I am wanting some objective perspective on this. I can generally follow directions and am somewhat familiar with your average toolbox but not much more than that.

No problem.
If it’s wireless you shouldn’t have any problem at all. The only complicated part of any alarm system is the wiring and they’ve eliminated that for you so go for it. I thought most alarm companies offered free installation though, so you might want to shop around before using these guys.
i am also a DIY guy who would rather do things myself “for the fun of it”, and to gain knowledge and experience. but a car’s electrical wiring system is one thing you wouldn’t want to mess up with if you are someone without the necessary training and knowledge about auto electrical systems. that is one thing where “if in doubt, don’t act” applies.
better not to take chances here, have a trained auto alarm installer install your alarm. you’ll have peace of mind that it was installed properly, and you’ll have someone to do it again if it wasn’t.
it’s really up you, i am just telling you what i would do in your case
