And airbags also cost a ****load to get regassed after they go off. Pizzo sirens? dont put them under your seats, hide them in the dash maybe in the aircon vents facing where you sit for max effect or something? Makes the ****ers eardrums bleed Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i got my alarm in the car messages me, and calls if i dont reply to message, also i can message the car to shut off any time. i pretty much communicate with the alarm through messages........just say im worried about it, so i message 'status' with a password and it messages back 'alarm armed' and says if anything happened. It has a sim card in it so i can be on the other side of the aus and still messages me.
