your looking for a proximity sensor mate. They dont come standard and Clifford gets expensive when you start adding the extras.

Id go for the toad above, I personally hate clifford alarms, annoying, laods are badly fitted for some reason and always seam to go wrong..

ive had the toad alarm on my car for 5 years, still perfect working order.

got my viper 480vx (cat 1 with ultrasonics) for £335 fitted, £120 cheaper than the equivalent clifford.
got prox (people get near) and tilt sensors (jack up the car to steal wheels) included in the price and auto window wind up for free because the fitter didnt need the module for it and wired it up free of charge...

best thing about the viper is that it doesnt have a shock sensor so rain/fireworks are not an annoyance

it wont be cat 1 if you fit it yourself... and im sad to say the viper is the best value for money if you couldnt afford the 650

Get it fitted by a pro mate.

Even the very best alarm money can buy is worthless if fitted badly
