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.

NO, mine one is 05 euro, if someone open/unlock door, the alarm will go on but it's from horn.

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

But I tried sitting inside the car and use remote to lock the door,
and wait for around 1 min then I open the door, the horn was on.
so what does it mean?
