Default Alarm

i am a skeptic, and i'm not 100% convinced by alarms sold on ebay. just a quickie, has anyone bought an alarm system off of an ebay seller, and in general do you think its worth it, the system is 32.99

On eBay you usually have lots of high quality items and then others that claim they are the same for half the price. I know of a few people that have bought some car security on eBay with no problems, and for £33.00 it looks like it can be trusted.

Your next move should be the post the link here...

Personally I would only fit an alarm with an immoliser. Any security will reduce your risk of having the car broken into though.

Dont make the car a target for thiefs though. If you have a removable radio do you ALWAYS remove it?

Me? I leave it in with the doors unlocked... oops?

My mate has to put in a code on his 306 before the engine would start, awesome security and it dropped his insurance by £400!
