Fitting alarms.. how difficult is it?

Lol, be a bit more specific.

 

[Tim]

lol well basically was just wondering how hard it would be to fit an alarm and immobiliser but have realised they need to be professionally fitted to be thatcham approved so it would be pointless fitting it my self anyway.

 

[Lee]

From experience I'd recommend a Clifford of some sort.

Depends what alarm you want! Some alarms need to be fitted by a professional to validate the warranty etc.

Yep also if you get a cat1 alarm and get it fitted and prove you had it fitted by a professional geezer then you get cheaper insurance.

yeah thats my next thing is a decent alarm with remote looking

 

[Tim]

Yer thats why I need the professional fitting to be able to prove to my insurance.

 

[dearing5]

its the best way mate

I paid £250 for a CAT 1 alarm, thats the alarm itself + fittings from a registered fitter, you have to get a stamp and a signiture to ensure its valid. Insurance wouldn't even think about insuring me if I didn't have it.

I've got a Toad AI606 with dual zone microwave sensor. Cost me £40 to my brother for fitting it, I wouldn't want to take it back out it's been that well installed. The alarm and sensor cost me £150 from Ebay brand new.

 

[Tim]

Yer I have seen that toad, was the one I was thinking of buying just need to find a registered fitter now.

 

[Tim]

Well thats useful, just rung a auto electrics up to see how much it would cost to fit the alarm and he said he would have to see it before knowing how much it would cost. Anyone have any idea how much abouts it will cost to fit?
