Alarm System - What are the sensors?

What sensors are a part of the ML's alarm? door locks of course, but is there one for vehicle motion? motion for the interior? impact to panels or windows?

We are shopping for one. I remember my M3 had a motion sensor in the rear view mirror that would sense if someone reached into the car. Recently there have been some break ins on car around my neighbourhood so I got curious. I would even know how to steal a car. Especially with keyless. I'd be more of the smash grab and go type. Lol

Hope you find something you like. I'm also interested to know more about the security - not much (if anything of MB sites).

I am pretty sure there are no motion sensors.
