I recently purchased a 1997 GT. I have read articles about the anti theft system. The articles state that the alarm system became standard in the 1997 model. The owners manuel gives directions on how to arm the alarm (I do not have a remote) by turning off the key, then locking the door with the power door lock. It then says the alarm light will glow steadily for about 30 seconds after the doors are closed. The system is then armed.

I do know that the alarm light on the dash works, it flashes once when the vehicle is started.

To make a long story longer, does anybody know whats wrong or did this vehicle not come with the option, if in fact it was an option.
