Jezt the most reliable box is the 4-speed which you'll have in yours. The 5-speed was introduced in late '99-2000 so you're ok there.

Do you know why the alarm keeps going off? It might well be that there's something inside the car, that's setting off the interior sensors?

has your battery got enough charge?
