I don't know but I was wondering what was out there for car alarms with cameras. What would ya recommend or would it be better just to go with one without a camera. Recommend any good ones. Thanks.

None of the camera units are worth a darn.

you could use a standard security camera - disassemble a good quality fixed dome camera (not PTZ).

then make a power supply for it and add a DVR that uses solid state memory. then you'd get good enough quality to use in court.

the alarm could trigger the camera and DVR, as long as they have power. so then a back up power source seems fitting.
