owens130 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Hi guys im fairly new on here and thought i would ask for your opinion, ive got a 3 door gti and im looking at fitting remote central locking or an alarm. Am i right in thinking that if i go with the remote central locking it wont activate the standard alarm??if this is the case should i just fit an alarm?? the kits i have seen are on ebay and are not thatcham my any means but look fairly competent the central locking kit is http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=120331094209 the alarm is http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=120390791446 i will be fitting what ever i decide so that side of thing doesnt come into account what do you guys think of my choices or do you have any ideas of what i could fit cheers Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssexMikeSi Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I have had a toad cat 1 alarm in the past on some cars and its always seemed reliable and great value for money. The model i had was a ai606, think theyre about £280 fully fitted. Has interior sensors, remote central locking etc etc. My insurance went down 10% to when i fitted one on a rs2000 i had.

owens130 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 it doesnt need to be thatcham approved and i dont realy want to spend £100 on a toad alarm(i know the Ai606 are good ive had them on my last 4 cars) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssexMikeSi Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 ah fair enough then, i just didnt know if it would end up working out cheaper, and fair do's if u can fit it yourself, alot of people wouldnt have the know how or confidence to.
