The anti hijack is a bitch, im going to turn mine off but at best all i can do is lock the doors from the remote and the immobiliser will arm after turn off.
Cheaper option, would be a bit of jigery pokery, and u could use your alarms output functions as a turbo timer.........and you will be able to arm and walk away.....
turn it off? how do i do that? i got a toad ai606,
and also how would you set the alarm as a timer?
I've got an AI606 aswell mate. Turning off, sorry but

Any half decent alarm won't let you arm the alarm while the ignition is on/engine is running, for obvious reasons (i think we've all seen the Argos quick fit alarms on a car driving down the road whilst the siren is going off
)
Basically if you fit a turbo timer you alarm can't be fully set until the car has turned off. You can, lock the doors by remote and when it turns off the immobiliser will arm automatically, but no alarm.
