Default Active Anti Theft system. How do I know I have it?

Hello, I just picked up my 06 GT on saturday. My question is, How do I know if I have the active anti theft or not? My window sticker says I have it, but customer PR lady at the dealer said it doesnt. I feel she doesnt know what she is talking about. But short from throwing a rock through my own window, how do I determine if I have the Factory Active anti theft system? Thanks in advance to all that reply.

Look for the "MAGIC EYES" on each side of your overhead light console. or.........

Park your car, remove the keys, lock the doors, stay inside, be very still for a few minutes, then move around that will tell you.

Do the same as above, but stay outside of the car, place a floor jack under the car, and raise it,

If the sticker sez u have it. I feel u HAVE it. No dealer is going to uninstall this.

I think you could also roll down the window, arm it and then stick your arm in and see what happens.

Lock Doors
Bust out windows with crowbar, see if the alarm comes on

Collect insurance

I know mines got the active alarm.

Had her (alarm armed) in the garage (door closed) with the windows down, wipe'in her off, saw some lint on the interior arm rest reached in to clean it off and all of a sudden all h%ll breaks loose, I d$mn near have a heart attack........the wife comes runn'in otta the house scream'in "WHAT THE H^LL ARE YOU DO'IN". Quickly pulling myself together I responded.........uh, noth'in honey...........just wiping off the steering wheel.

Geez'us
