Default clifford siren replacement

my clifford siren needs replacing and they dont do a clifford concept 600one anymore. The clifford guy said they can get a proper one in from america but its 89 quid plus fitting costs and not available till october! any suggestions on something cheaper?

ring up any specialist breakers and ask, nicer cars have nicer alarms.

No offence it sounds as if the alarm fitter isn't up to much, I got one replaced on a Clifford Concept 300 as it's a common problem with them packing up on this model, wasen't to expensive either!

I am pretty sure most of the sirens would be generic?

Thats what i first thought but he is an official clifford dealer and recommend highly from someone of here. He said even the concept 650u cant get sirens for anymore. But u can get a siren that meats all the thatchem guidelines from the same company that produce clifford products. Weather he's telling the truth or not i cant be arsed to pay 90quid for the part then 50quid to fit, he said it has to be programmed up too but surely the programe will be the same from just replacing the siren. Anyway i googled it and cant find them anywhere

Nope certainly not in my case anyway, I watched it being fitted, simply cut the old one off, spliced in the new one, job jobbed! It was a while ago but it wasen't to expensive, I have the receipt.
