Default 97 Dodge Neon car alarm?

Hi, ive never had a car alarm before, and wanted to put one in. I dont have automatic door locks, is that a prob? What should i look for in terms of an alarm?

The reason I want to get one is that my car was broken into last night.

Won't be a problem unless you want keyless entry.

To get the proper wires attached correcty is fairly difficult and time consuming unless someone on the neon forum was nice and posted the correct wire connections and locations

Looks like you need a good alarm with glass break censor.
