Alarm installation recomendation

[Graham B]

Recently had a problem with my meta alarm (wouldn't lock the car, siren kept going off) so I decided to bite the bullet and get it replaced.

Had a Clifford 300 system fitted by Sextons in Reading and would just like to say how impressed I was with their service. I was expecting the car to be with them for at least a couple of days but it only took them a day to take out the old meta rubbish and replace with the new alarm. They even washed the car for me!

They did confess if they hadn't previously done a TVR it would have been a complete nightmare for them but hey, I was happy.

Edited as I forgot to say it was a Griff.

How much ????

Graham, be aware that when I had a concept 300 on my griffith it was replaced 7 times, eventually thought it was because of a lack of earth on a fibreglass car.

I also used Sextons who I think are excellent and would recommend.

They did say getting an earth is a major problem with fibreglass cars but they were going to run it through to the earth strap (does that make sense?).

What were the symptoms?

I'll let you know how I get on over the next week or so. My neighbours are going to love me if it keeps going off.

Mel - it cost £395 including fitting. Doesn't have all the fancy gizmo's as I didn't really need them. May have the remote boot release fitted at a later date though.

Cheers

Graham, main problem was that it went off all the time and sometimes was unstopable.

ps. I had the remote engine start and boot release done too, very worthwhile.
