Hello miata peoples

I was wondering if there is a simple way of making the lights in the
miata automatically shut off when the key is removed?  I know that saabs
have done this/still do?  On volkswagons all you need to do is move a relay

WRT alarms.  I am currently looking at the alpine 84?? because it has a 
"quiet" chip, and a microwave intrusion detector.  I am not sure how it
works, but in the saleslime's miata if you put you hand in the window the 
alarm goes off.  He says that it also works w/ the top down or the hard top.
Does anybody have anything good/bad to say about them?  One bad thing is the
price ($325) and you cannot buy it and install it yourself.  So if anyone
knows of a place in the Seattle area that would do high quality instalation
that would be helpful too.  I have seen too many alarms w/ an inline fuse
next to the battery to count.  When I install an alarm I integrate it into
the factory wiring harness if possible

thanks
