Simply find an alarm professional in your area (google, craigslist, etc.), check for certification and refrences, and go with them. Stereo shops don't count because they don't focus on security and therefore their installers will always find the fastest way to install the alarm, not the most stealthy way. An alarm specialist will make a car alarm install more factory-looking and hard to detect by potential theives.
