The whole thing is after market alarm.
The Toyota RS3200 is just the glass break sensor and maybe the hood pin installed on the truck. The rest of the alarm is already on the truck, they just have to activate it with their computer. The RS3200 is pretty much plug and play.
The alarm I installed has a 2 way remote with a 1 mile range. I know the status of the truck at all time. If the alarm goes off, or if someone bumps the truck or whatever, I know right away. I also installed a GBS and a tilt sensor to go with the shock sensor that came with the alarm. The tilt sensor activates the alarm if someone jacks up the truck to steal the wheels or if the truck is being towed. I have an external siren but also have a 120 dB internal siren to deafen the person who gets in the truck. I have a hood pin and have plans for a tailgate pin and maybe a gas tank cover pin. Haven't decided on that last one.
