Title: Alarm installers - recommendations? (Southwest)
Post by: jmsheahan on 19 July 2011, 21:11

I have a Toad AI606 I'd like installed into my Mk2 Golf. It's brand new in the box but I don't trust myself to fit it  :grin:

I'm looking for a good installer that's in the Southwest (mobile or fixed) that knows Vw's and will do a through, tidy job. Can anyone recommend anywhere/had experiences with?

Ta!

 :grin: Yeah I bet there's some shoddy work out there.

Surely most people most have some form of alarm/immobiliser installed on older dubs though?

Some won't fit alarms or issue a certificate for an alarm they haven't supplied.
