The Viper 791xv does not have black wiring and my skyline is fully covered by Just Cars. Call your own insurance company before purchasing any car alarm. If you are in need of a Viper alarm at a cheap price send me a PM and I'll see what I can do Cheers, Greg Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeh i have cyclops cost me 360 with boot release so no one can break in and steel my subs . NEVER get a cobra alarm! my dad had a VL calais V8, one day walking back to the car after a hard day at work, notices a car similar to his drive out, didnt think anything of it, got to his parking space and it was gone! had the car for 9 days. theives found the weak spot for cobra alarm which is very well known now and bam! car was gone. which brings me to another point, (nothing about alarms tho) after that VL was gone (althought i dont think it was a calais) my mum bought a VL Calais, maroon over silver, the best condition i have ever seen a VL in! all th badges everything.ell we had that car for 12 years, in that time, it gt stolen 5 times, broken into about 12 times, and it was found everytime in the exact same suburb. the last time it got stolen mum was in foodland for 5 min and it was gone. We dont have the car anymore...gee i wonder y, oh and I WOULD OF HAD THAT CAR ASWELL! let me no wot u think of my story hehehe Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i am about to buy a VLT and am looking at alarm options also. the alarm that I would want must have: - black wiring (as the insurance company I will be going with wants that) - must have 3 point immobiliser - I would like it to have the infrared thing in the cabin so if it detects any movement it will activate. - remote start would be nice - provisions for turbo timer addons if anyone could tell me which alarm fits the above description (or as close to as possible), would be great.

I dont want to sound like a smart ass or nothing, but telling ppl what brand of alarm you have is kind of silly on a car forum dont you think? Ever wonder where the thieves get the information to steal your cars?

Ever wonder where the thieves get the information to steal your cars? there is no info about the car, or my personal details listed on here. so I dont see how anyone will be taking my car Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
