TOAD Ai606

Hi just looking at getting an alarm and immobiliser for my new motor, just asking if this is a good alarm and a good deal.

Also is the standard list all the things that will come with the alarm as some of them seem like cost extras?

Thanks.

Just found these people who will add extras in.

SHOCK SENSOR : To sense impact on vehicle £15 fitted

REMOTE BOOT RELEASE: this boot solenoid which is placed in your boot lid and is activated via a button on your new keyfob.£0 - 25 fitted prices varies with model of vehicle

Seem cheap and worthwhile?

There are just so many extras think I need these as well.

TILT SENSOR : To sense if the vehicle is jacked up ,ie; if your wheels are attempted to be stolen or attempted to be towed away etc £50 fitted

TOTAL CLOSURE : To close all your electric windows and sunroof on arm of alarm 2/4 window £50 fitted

Nope my car has now changed I am getting a GT4 still but a fresh import, these come with no alarm on.

Just a word of warning, if you have a turbo timer on, you'll have to wait for it to switch off before locking the car. A "feature" of the Ai606 is to unlock the doors when the engine stops, so once the turbo timer has counted down, it'll unlock the doors.

No the car does not have the turbo timer, but thanks for the heads up.

Will contact the frist company (the one you used) and check the prices for any extras, see if I can save a bit of cash.

Yeah will do however they seem a lot more expensive than the toad ones, and I do not want to pay just for a name, or features that I will not use.

I can get a decent toad for around £300 so I will see what Clifford do around that price range.

 

[cymatty]

MSI Security do the Clifford 650 Mk2 for around £350 I think.

Yeah just going to look what features that has now and compare prices.

Edit just seen this

REMOTE CAR START :To start and stop your vehicle from your new Toad remote £95 fitted.

Could that be used like a turbo time I wonder, lock the car whilst it is running then go inside and shut the car off after a couple of mins.

 

[cymatty]

I know theres a similar one on the CLIFFORD alrm , that you can start the car my remote or mobile phone to recharge the battery OR you can start it by remote so it warms the car up for you

Yeah but they are around the £500 mark

Oh you mean buy the alarm then get it added on later?
