has anyone fitted an alarm to their euro? i want to get one but don't know which to get :confused:
yeah, somoene has.....i think peekay34? or VirIIx has installed an alarm that uses the original key......someone with a blue euro.....thats all i remember :p
do a search :)
talk to Strathfield if your in Sydney. i got quiktrak in mine, and it uses the original key.
euroaccord13 has aftermarket alarm system using original key. PM him.
ya i got after market alarm system on my euro man. i use laserline 975s . it uses a new stand alone remote. The original on the key does not get used.
In hind site if i was to use an after market alarm all over again i would be inclined to use the laserline 975 piggy back which uses the original alram.
what are the benefits of an aftermarket alarm?
Presumably a break glass or motion detector in the cabin is one advantage. I think the OEM alarm only goes off if you open the door - if someone smashed my drivers' door would the alarm go off?
If someone smashed the window, then get inside, as long as he/she didn't open/unlock the door, the oem alarm will stay quiet. That's why aftermarket alarm with shock and/or motion sensor is still the best to protect whatever you have inside your car.Quote:

It doesn't matter if it's 03, 04 or 05, if someone breaks in through the window, the alarm (horn) will not sound.....Quote:

that is right starch, but you opened the door.
Nothing would happen if the glass was smashed entry gained, but door never opened.
i guess as long as u get one..
thats like complied to australian standards..

I'm just curious as to why an alarm would deter any would be thiefs. Nowadays alarms go off all the time and no one bothers. I guess it might be useful if someone tried to break in in your own garage. Maybe a prominant alarm warning sticker would be more useful? Just my 2c.
