I've just finished fitting this kit from Ebay for £23  :laugh:

The remote that come with the kit were different to the ones in the picture.
That didn't matter much as they were stainless steel jobbies instead, much better looking.  :cool:

Pretty much any kit will fit an alarm system but it depends if it works on a negative 12v or a positive 12v.
As far as I'm aware, most systems use a negative 12v set up so it should be pretty simple to fit, just match the wiring together and Robert's your mum's brother!
