Toad Ai606.

Does everything you need it to without being flash enough for it to cost you and arm and a leg.

Toad ai606, or C5T2, I personally like the C5T2 better, do some net searching and ask around, fitment quality varies a lot, and this determines future problems.
The idiot that fitted one to my mk2 astra did a good job, everytime I braked it cut out the engine, but ONLY if it was raining, work that one out, took me a littler while.
he fitted the main control box behind the kick panel on the drivers side, this is also a water channel on the mk2 astra, so yes it filled with water, and under braking sloshed forward shorting the unit and stopping the engine.

^ I will say the guy who fitted my toad alarm snapped my dashboard surround. I wouldn't have minded if he had just told me, but he taped up the back of it and pushed it back in, first time I went over a bump it separated.
