I would like to install an aftermarket alarm system in my kompressor. Is it possible or I am likely to cause problems?

You will definately run into problems. Not only that but you will probably lose control of the radio steering wheel controls.
It is a bad idea as it always causes problems, especially battery dis-charge problems which leave you stuck with a car that won't start. The stock system is just as good as any aftermarket.
