you can also try Vision Track (www.visiontrack.com.au) I think it's about $1300 for the package

I think letsboogie has way too much money to throw around!! But Mike's correct and approved systems also run all black wiring now to make them harder to bypass in car.

If you just went for an immobiliser to current AS/NZ standards, and that is all you need for engineering, you'd be up for $150 to 180. I think that was what I first paid for my mongoose kit.

I ended up adding a siren and sensor so got to about $300 all up, but thought that pretty reasonable. The mongoose kits offer adaptability as I'm sure some of the others can too.

Unless there are a whole raft of special bits with Vision track I can't see why one would justify the expense. I've got better things to spend that extra $1000 on!

You can get shock sensors and glass breakage sensors etc etc but these aren't justified in a cobra in my book. The microwave sensor was just a whim on my part and this may even prove a pain in the butt but we'll see how well I can adjust its sensing capabilities.

Happy researching.

Cheers

most insurnce companies that do exotic cars want 3 cuts

at end of day if they want yr car they wil get it no matter how many cuts

another prob is most ****ty cars i work on with alarms are headaches

do not ever get a guy who takes 30 mins to fit an alarm to install it


most guys fit alarms under steering wheel in a normal car and it ****s me


i have ripped out more alarms than i have fitted

a badly fitted alarm will cause more headaches than a car without an alarm

the more cuts u have the more probs can happen down the track if u get any poor connections

another thing is dont buy alarms from ebay

make sure its aussie made for warranty reasons and customer service

HAHA! Ya, but mine are smaller I'd guess. (That is not mine) Mine weigh about 80lbs (6 months old) and about 165lbs. My female's dad looked just like that dog though! He could nearly lick my face without taking his paws off the ground! lol His head was about as wide as my body (5'8" 185lbs), easily the size of a basketball. They're lovers though, not fighters. My female is a brindle Italian Mastiff (cane corso), and my male is a Dogue De Bordeaux Mastiff (French Mastiff what hooch is).

More info on frenchies! These dogs, while large.. make very good pets! They are very calm and loyal!

Great looking pups mate ....I did have a Bull Arab a while back and he was a scary BOY!! He was bred and used as a hunting dog he looked awesome with his leather chest and body guards on and wouldn't take a backwards step and loved the chase ...Though at home he was a gentle giant had an awesome temperament and would bound around chasing a ball with the kids and was like a 3 mth old puppy.
Regards Paul

I once had a picture that was published in a trade publication for an alarm company that was of an individual in Mexico City that had a huge Rattlesnake intertwined in the steering wheel of his closed car. Story was he would remove and store it in a secure box in the trunk. THat would certainly deter most thiefs.
