Cat 1 alarm, which one?

For an insurance point of view they are a necessity but from an actual security point of view, pretty useless (when was the last time you ever saw anyone responding to a car alarm??). Immobilisers are obviously good but hardly difficult to get past. You’d be better off fixing a couple of switches into the loom yourself – at least that way there are no visible signs as to what make/model you have. Won’t stop some scum crowbarring your door and ripping the dash apart trying to start it though. The best security is a visual deterrent to stop people breaking into your car in the first place. I recommend a **** off dirty great disk-lock.

Main reason for having an alarm is so when the little herberts try to break in i hear it outside and make haste with the heaviest object i can find then reciprocate with similar damage to them before the old bill get involved and let them go scot free

There is nothing worse than finding someone has been in your motor whilst you were asleep 10 feet away and you didn't know anything about it

It won't stop the real pro but most of the damage to cars round here is done by youngsters and druggies and to quote a Tarentino film "Its almost worth the damage just to catch em doing it":mischeif: Morale of the story, people with broken fingers can't take your stereo

Ive had nothing but bad experiences of Clifford in 3 cars we've had.
I know an alarm is only as good as its installation but we had actual component failures on the systems themselves more than once.
I also had a close friend of mine who fitted systems for a living - he wouldnt touch Clifford - said they were far too complicated for their own good.
Toad 606 is known to be a fantastic system, yes its not got all the bells,whistles and flashing lights and i suppose this depends on what you want from your alarm - if you want it to make the tea and wipe your backside its not for you.
