you only need to find a solenoid for the drivers door lock, the passenger door already has one, thats how you lock/unlock it from the button near the power windows. my series 1 only needed this wired up and mounted, then interface with the alarm. took 10 min.

As dor the alarm itself, that is quite an involved install if you want to do it properly. i suggest paying a shop to do it. most will do it for 3-400 supply and fit. if its recently imported, ask the importer who they use, mine had a deal going with the local audio/security mob as most insurance policy's need immobilisers these days.

no offence but it will last al of 6 months before the remotes die. take it back and grab a better one.

NEXT TIME give him help instead of telling him what to do. It isnt your car hes asking about or telling you to fiddle with.

He is giving him professional help, Hes obviously saving him alot of stuffing around in the long run by getting a decent setup in the first place. instead of cr@p.

it is true there not the best alarm,but for $200 ya cant really complain.the few i have installed however have been fine,never had a problem with them and they have been in the cars for about a year and half now.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
