Mk2 Golf Chat / Re: Alarm choices
I feel alarms are irrelevant when you talk about today's mk2 - in reality, do you really think someone is going to "hotwire" a mk2? I doubt it today, certainly true 10 yrs ago. In todays world it'll be put on a low loader and stripped for bits.

I would never recommend an alarm system for theft prevention on a mk2 - yes for general security ( window smashed, tilt sensor for wheels etc) but not for theft.

security on a Mk2 needs to be a Thatcham approved cat6 tracker, dont bother with the cheap ebay ones, you need confidence not doubt. To keep your own mind at bay add a cat2 touch imobaliser - we prefer the cobra as it a really neat install but to be fair choose whatever you fancy - as long as it's a certified cat2.

We been installing alarms for 20+ years, clifford approved, toad, cobra etc - the truth is they are all about the same, its all down to how good your installer is ;)

My Mk2 has a CAT2 touch imob. and a cat6 tracker. I have ever confidence that if someting did happen id get it back.
