Merc A-Class help

[CooK1E]

Bit of help required from anyone with experience with Merc's.

The long story cut down to the juicy bits, is that we need a new alarm siren for a Merc A Class. The current one has an internal battery that is draining the main battery at an alarming (excuse the pun) rate.

Mercedes have said that the alarm systems were fitted once the cars came over to the UK and that they can no longer supply parts. They wanted to suggest a whole new system at the cost of £400+.

Anyone know of anywhere that can supply replacement parts for the system, or more to the point who produced the system?

Cheers

I think its a mark 2, although I'd need to get that checked. The dealer has already sorted some of the electrical gremlins (a load of plugs had pretty much disintegrated). We've nailed it down to this horn, but just need to source a replacement. To be fair I've done no research as I thought I'd turn to the OCUK motors section first!

disconnect the alarm and when it gets stolen you can replace it with something better

Exactly my comments when the old man said about it.
