Well as im going to putting alot of ICE into my car soon, i thought i better upgrade from my standard alarm and get a decent Cat 1 in there,

whats the best one to get and could anyone recommend any companys / sites who do them,

I would love one where if somone gets to close to it, it will give them a warning beep and if they dont get away it will then go off,

how much are these

an alarm is no good on it own, It may put off a few car thieves but a career criminal wont think twice about smashing ur window and nicking ur stereo (wheather the alarm is sounding or not)!!

ur best bet if ur going for a large install is to make it stealthy. hide everything away so that no-one knows its there.

apart from my alarm my best invest for car security was security tints. These look like normal tints but when someone ties to smash your window all it does it crackbut the glass stays intact!!

This should be enough to stop the twocer scum cos it makes it very difficult to get into the car!!!

The guys down here ( Sw-cc.com) have got a deal where you can have the ai606 fitted with shock sensor for about 250

Think I'll get that when my car starts to get modded.

Well Git you will want the A 850T

It upgrades the Corsa C's current alarm system and takes it from Cat 2 to a Cat 1 alarm

yeah,

thats right

You currently have a cat 2 immobiliser,

with the A850T it upgrades that two a Cat Immobiliser and gives you a cat 1 alarm too,

Basicly its exactly the same as the ai606, however it doesnt have the central locking, and other bits already in your system,

so thus saves you money on parts you already have

Ihave been quoted 299 fitted from sextons in Reading, however i might see if they can come down a bit if sextons in wales are doing thr ai606 for 250 fitted!

Ill have to see

Its somthing i need to get soon, as i wont be able to put my ICE in until its done
