Title: Alarm suggestions
Post by: patch900 on 03 April 2007, 12:36: never had a car alarm, can anyone suggest a decent make.

The one on the Golf is a full closure as well.

If you want a keyless unlocking you will probably have to have an alarm/immobiliser type.

Your best bet would be to have a chat with a dealer and see what would be best for you.

quick question. Jst looking at the cobra site and it gives a product selector.

The golf already has an immobiliser fitted, is it a Cat 2 ? as they recommend upgrade to Cat 1.

Post by: patch900 on 03 April 2007, 13:35: Cobra 3193 or 3198, do know how much difference between the 2 are Ã‚£160 or Ã‚£180 fitted.

Price OK ?
