Default lo jack question?

Bought my car with 900 miles on it, and I noticed that there were two lojack fobs attached to my keys... So from my understanding (dealer is totally clueless of everything about this car) it has lojack installed but it's been deactivated...

My question..
If you were me, would you reactivate it?
How much is it monthly?
Is it worth it?
I've heard mixed opinions...

Thanks in advance

I have stock alarm, and plan on going detach steering wheel soon

Or actually can you post a picture of the fob? Maybe it is Lojack's starter kill version. LoJack has two options. Most people just get the basic version as that gives you the insurance discount.

But regardless, if you have it already, you should re-register in your name.

God I'm bored...

I looked on LoJack's website and they have keyfobs.

You possibly have the Lojack early warning device option. This has a keyfob. This version also requires a monthly subscription.

I don't know... I have never seen the fobs before. I guess it just beeps at you when your car moves so you can run out and try to catch the would be thief? I think that is a little overkill for me.

Plus with all of the fobs on your key chain (Lojack, car alarm, probably have a fob to get in to your housing complex, gym membership fob)... too many fobs. Just reregister the base Lojack and save the early warning fobs for when you sell the car as a bonus.
