You can get an MAP80G.
This is the upgrade model, I think.
Some alarms allow you to install them ONTOP of the current immobiliser. You could essentially have 4-points. LOL.
I mainly find people suggest alarms that they themselves use; not neccessaily because they have intricate experiance with them.
FYI, My car came pre-fitted with an alarm that I recommended to the previous owner. I'll be ripping that out and putting one of our ones in.
hey dude...Quote:

-black wiring
-fuel cut
-ignition cut
-its got the normal standard alarm features
the standard alarm/immobiliser still works and all the functions of the remote also still work so i like it...
just gimme a yell if u want the guys number... i think it cost me about $300 or so fitted..
What's the alarm he installed? LOL
think it was a cyclops or sumthin.. dun remember .. was like a yr ago.. lol
left a msg on his fone to let me know wat brand it was.. will update when he replies my msg..
i'm in Melbourne tho...
to be honest , alarms dont really do shit these days . When you hear a car alarm these days , do you really do anything about it ?Quote:

All up , cost me $350 fitted . Very good alarm i must say . Alot of features (which you never end up using :p ) .
My girlfriend's s2000 also has the same system fitted to her car. As for tracking systems , if your not insured then you will need one , but they really are pointless . Cause if theives want your car they will get it no matter what .
I do, Vuey. LOL
We're getting Rhino Tracks and Rhino RAM system put in to the work car this week.
Tracking systems can be very useful for fleet cars.
I am seriously looking into getting one as well. What do i go for? i want one that'll beep the remote and let me know somethings up. so i can run out and pound the bastards. my car got keyed infront of my house. My mums rear window was smashed infront of our house. I want to wake up and catch the bastards right away. and prevent ofcourse them from taking the car or my sound system.Quote:

I use one remote, and one remote only - I have all functions any alarm would have, have boot release, silent mode, panic mode. My immobilizer is still in tact, my central locking works as per factory, my lights flash when I arm/disarm, my boot pops up as it would with the factory remote. All my wires are black, and all my wires are hidden and cannot be accessed easily. I also have a motion sensor dongle, and the facility to add window modules and other modules as desired. My remote isn't daggy, and doesn't have an LCD screen on it lol.. Pretty good imo.
Best thing, it costed me $60 delivered next day. Ebay ftw! XD Just make sure you get the right person to install it and don't do a bodgey job and you'll be alright. If thieves really wanna steal your car, they will.
Peace.
You sleep better at night knowing you got the best of the best.. Regardless the fact that in most cases it wont make a difference. Like you said if they want the car, theyll get it. Thats why a GPS tracker is the best option, theyll get the car, but wont go very far with it :)Quote:
