Toad a1606

[Rob_00]

Found a fitter on ebay doing a Toad a1606 alarm for £205, fitted at my home

worth it or not?

Says £305 in your title bar mate -- Depends on if he's a certified fitter (if not it's probably worthless for insurance purposes)

Don't know -- think my bro got his Ai606 for £200 about a year ago?

[BoostJunkie]

would say so i have one they are very good alarms £205 for a cat 1 alarm not bad,but make sure when he fits it that when you have your turbo timer running and it runs out that it doesn't open the locks as mine does that but from what i hear is a case of a diode has to be fitted to stop it from opening the doors and he should be able to do that for you.

sorry, i ment £205 in the title

it is ment to be a reputable company and will supply the certificate for insurance

I changed the title for you mate -- The Ai606 is pretty good, you can get add-ons to provide full closure, remote boot pop etc.

I also have this on my SR. Great alarm. never had any problems with it. It was fitted when i bought the car so i got a friend, who runs an alarm fitting centre to check it by trying to hot wire the car and he couldnt as it kept cutting out.

£205 sounds like a bit of a bargin so as people have said get some verification he or she is a qualified fitter

I'm getting ths alarm

Thanks for pointing out that cheap price...will have a look for that now

i hated toad systems until speaking to a local guy who does the fitting... i wanted a cobra system, but he convinced me that the toad ai606 was better and cheaper. 300 notes later and i would honestly say i wouldnt swap it for the world.

very good bit of kit.

fitted for 200 is very good, but is he defo a certified fitter?

thats the link

im sure i have heard good things about the company before. I think the guy said they are VSIB approved or whatever it is (the good one)

i have the toad c5 compact. i have no complaints at all. the company i got mine done by said toad are by far the best and said he would never recommend any thing else. i got mine fitted for £260 with remote central locking and immobiliser and turbo timer fitted. place called mint car enhancements in nottingham. any one in the midlands i recommend you check them out.

i just bought one must protect the car

there seems to be a few sellers on ebay doing them and a few different ones for around £200+

aparantly VSIB fitteres are better than MESF (?) registered fitters for insurance purposes
