This bloke will come down from w.yorkshire and fit me an alarm for £160 plus fit me a 0awg power cable, far too fiddly for me took me long enough to do 8awg.

Are these alright, I need some form of security in my car as it's standard at the moment and soon to have another £1ks worth of ICE.

Would get the ultrasonics added as an extra too.

Hes coming to mine tommorow to fit tht alarm. So should be able to give you some feedback tommorow night. I think it looks like a good alarm though, and will give me a bit of peace of mind.

very basic alarm and imho its a bit pricy, end of the day it does what most alarms do and like you say its a bit of piece of mind for you

Looks pretty good for an alarm to be honest.

Pretty interested in that myself.

Yer, it doesn't go of if you rock it.. because if it did the alarm would go off in wind. But it goes off with impact. So if u hit the windscreen (not very hard) the alarm will sound. Its the same with the doors and rear screen.
