hi guys,
i bought a saxo with a clifford G5 alarm fitted, however it only locks / un locks the doors, works the alarm, imobilises the engine and rolls the windows up,
i am lookign to remove it from the old saxo to the new one, but want everything working including the remote engine start....

This is not somthing that i would recomend as if you dont know what you are doing you can get alot wrong. The clifford concept 650 mk2 has 8 black wires and will no longer be tagged so you will have to label each wire as you take it off to what it goes to. also the wiring loom will be short that can be a pain in the arse. what i would recomend you do is get the brain out for the alarm and the brian for the engine start as you can get new wiring looms for them from a clifford dealer and start again with the install. then cut the window closer out labeling the wires left up and right up as these can be used again. as for diagrams for the clifford you will not get them as people that have been on the corse are told that they should never give them out, this stops the alarms being fitted by people that dont know what they are doing and getting the alarms the bad name back that they once had.

other than mark's advice above, if you do want to continue on an do this yourself then 'good luck' :y:
mark knows his stuff and for the hassle its going to be to take the old alarm out and try to re-wire it into this new car you've mentioned then maybe your best bet is to get a new one installed. then you know its rights at least :)

good news here guys, turns out the alarm wasnt fitted to the car by a profesional as allreay has all the black cables connecting using a proper junction box into colour coded wires, its taken me all day to locate all the boxes etc, and all thats left to do is remove the wire's writing down the colours as how they come off and then replicate how it came off in reverse to put it on my new one :D
however i have know idea what the intelgant start box looks like, and not sure where it would be located at that feature wasnt wired up with this system as it wasnt done by a pro....
