Anti theft alarm

Post by AlliDelta » Wed Aug 18, 2010 11:13 pm

I'm thinking of fitting an alarm to our new shiny Bongo so no skankie chavs can chore my kitesurfing gear or heaven forbid THE BONGO!! I have seen a fairly good spec alarm for not too much cash... Anyone have experience of fitting car alarms into a Bongo?? I'm fairly savvie with techie stuff just lack the knowledge of the wiring of the car!! :roll:

If your insurer gives an alarm-fitted discount, it might be worth spending that (and alright, probably a bit more) on a professional installation they'll accept. There's plenty of accredited installers will fit only/you supply.

You need to do at least a two word search to narrow it down some, eg put theft and alarm(the andis necessary) in the search box & you get this lot - http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... mit=Search
try other permutations for more/different results
