Right so my golf keeps getting vandalised ! And now I'm fed up of so would like to fit a working alarm . Anyone fitted one and have a recommendation / guide ?
I only have central locking not R/CL
Cheers guys
-
I have known cobra fitted to a lot of mk3s they are good and reliable
-
got a toad AI606 fitted on mine. Altho the guy did a bog of a job and i had to go around fixing his f*ckups. Apart from that the alarm is pretty good. My mate had a clifford concept G5 on his civic vtec vti coupe and we was on the motorway and the anti jackicked in and the car died doing 75 in the 3rd lane. Lol
on my toad theres so many extra features on it such as proximity sensors (car beeps if someone/something comes to close) remote start (start your car from a button /insurance void i think) tilt sensor, glass break sensor & mobile feature where you can send command txts to the alarm to activate or decative
your c locking is air pumped so that wont be a problem.

I have a Clifford fitted to mine and is great. I can control the windows and door locks fom the button. Plus it has a proximity sensor wich is like an invisible bubble round the car and anybody goes near it for to long or touches it at let's off a loud buzzzz to warn them off.
I wouldn't know how to fit one myself tho. An alarm like that takes alot of electrical no how to fit.

Make sure its cat 1 and get a certificate :lipsrsealed: :angry:
-
Have to get them pro installed for that don't you ? How much is an alarm instillation ?
-
look on the net too see if anyone local to you will fit one. As below. Make sure its cat1 & get certificate with it
-
I had a Cobra alarm/immobiliser fitted as soon as I bought my car, over 8 years ago now and its been great.

Can you not look in to renting a garage instead, if your car is getting continual grief an alarm might just be like a red rag to a bull.

It happens at the other halfs house its happened twice this year nothing will stop them , they even tried to steal the car when I was in it , box you in and bombard you , just least give me a warning so I can get some proof at least for when I phone her majesty's service .

-
I fits perfectly into the drivers door pocket aswell as if it was made for it :grin:
-

P.S if anyone lives near me and can fit one off these with their eyes shut message me ill make it worth your while when its working !!!! .....

I've got one of these in my MK3. It came from factory i believe. Where is the brainbox located for the alarm? I've got another exact alarm and thats got Proxmity Sensor, Shock Sensor, Glass Sensor and tilt sensor. I want to wire these in my alarm. Also would love the remote start feature. i have the manual too, so it'll be easy i hope :grin:

My cat attacks anyone that comes near my car, a stone and a half of Croydon Moggy puts most off

Most get fitted up behind the glovebox or behind the panel next to passengers right foot
-
Try to steal it with you in it?
Manchester or something?
