Title: Anyone added a pager alert to their OEM alarm?
Post by: simonkit on 07 February 2010, 14:07

 Just come across pagers which can be added (or used standalone) to alert you if your car alarm has activated - anyone have one fitted?

 Toad do one, amongst others

Just to let you know you can pick the toad one up for ~£100 on ebay.
I have used the clifford one before but i now have it on our workshop building to phone me if the alarm goes off.

 Thanks...saved me some cash if I decide to get one

 Also came across the Datatool Snitcher but it looks like it's more designed for motorbikes. Read a bit more on the Toad & looks a reasonable option, there's loads of cheaper pagers around but far too limited on range. Good thing about the Toad is you can also add another siren, might be a good idea to hide a nice loud one inside somewhere !!
