Smile Alarm Shock Sensor Upgrade?

Does any one have this on their RX-8, What does it do and is it worth it??
After checking with my dealer, they didnt even know it existed???
and finally, how difficult is it to install.

i the shock sensor and it's pretty good. when i first got the car i had it set pretty high so it went off all the time(our horns are really really loud)! so i did some testing and basically if you even touch the car it'll go off.. lol. so it's set pretty low for me

check the DIY section for the install. Not too difficult if you get the right set of wires from what I have read. Havent done it myself.

I had it factory installed in my 8, and mine goes off when it gets bumped a bit...I had to punch the tire to set it off, and I like it that way, the over sensitive setting is annoying because RICER Civics tend to set it off...it's quite a cheap upgrade as well, definately a good buy, $68 canadian...
