    The car should have an integrated alarm as standard.

    Try opening the drivers door manually (not using remote buttons), don't put the key in the ignition (or inside the vehicle for keyless models) and wait.

    The alarm should operate.

    Are you sure? I will try that, but where is the alarm light locate if it have?

    There is no alarm light per se.

    There is a flashing light which is the immobiliser indicator (which is pretty much all any car tends to have now).

    The car should definitely have an alarm, try opening door with blade and leave it a min before you put keys into ignition. I really don't see the point in putting a cheap led light in the car for no reason when the alarm is their!
