Help me fellas now my cossie has a engine again it has occurred to me I need an alarm for it before it goes back on the road so what do you guys recommend

I want 1 that will lock and unlock it off the fob

 

plenty of choice of cat 1 alarms out there.

if you want simple and effective buy toad.

if you want toys, buy clifford. But ONLY if you know a trusted fitter who can fit it properly. A poorly fitted clifford will give you no end of trouble. A properly fitted one will be perfectly reliable.

consider a tracker as well.

 

Ok cool what is the price differences betweent toad and cliff.

I want 1 that will chirp if you get to close. Is that a proximity sensor?

 

That will be the Clifford (I personally don't know of any others that do it, no doubt there is) I have had toad and Clifford before and warrens words are so true I have had problems with both, both due to installation. Stay away from gap security if they are still about as the customer service was terrible when mine started playing up and I took it elsewhere.

 

Toad ai606 I think it is does the proximity chirp as I had it fitted on my saph cos years ago.

 

Cobra alarms are reliable.

 

Both Toad and Clifford and pretty much other makes will chirp if you fit a proxy sensor.

As per Warren, get it fitted right whatever you pick. Both decent systems.

 

Ok cool

Will need to find some 1 trustworthy then

 

Does the Ai606 lock and unlock the car

 

as above I have a cat 1 cobra system and it has been no trouble at all, keyfob cases are also very cheap on ebay when the wear out. Mine was fitted to my daily at time of import and sva so presume they new what they where doing.

 

I bought my alarm from toad directly as far as I could tell, and they sent round someone from GAP to fit it.
He cracked my dashboard, only put half the screws back in!

A few months after fitting I dropped a friend back home went to start the car and had nothing. Turns out it was the immobiliser to the fuel relay. He had used incorrect wiring that had melted and looking at the surrounding area at one point I had a small fire under the dash! Absolutely shocking! Had to get someone to look over the whole alarm and they needed to replace several wires that were just taped together.
