Keypad Car Alarms?

[Sneakyazn]

just wanting to know where can i get a keypad car alarm installed ( i think its one of those keypads where u gotta punch in a key code or car wont start sorta thing) an how much it would cost or ... be looking at? if anyone has sorta idea, or perhaps know of a site that they can link. any info would be appreciated, thnx.

i have one

look up laserline alarm systems..

gets annoying having to type the code every time you want to start the car

but the security is unbeatable, even if someone gets your keys and immobilizer thing they still cant get far

[br3ndan]

the official supplier and installer for laserline is west coast in cannington.

give them a buzz.

I have had a code pad in my car for 4 years,

I cannot fault the security it provides, and the fact you have to type in the code everytime is not annoying,

as it is peace of mind.

Highly recommend getting one,

Try true blue alarms

How much was that Mike? Do they plug up to an already installed alarm system or does that require a sepearate (cheaper?) unit?

do u keep it in insight so they spot it and dont bother breaking windows..

or hide it wel

+1 to wanting to know if they can plug into existing alarm systems

Just a guess.. but, wont they just be a 2nd immobiliser that uses a code instead of pressing a button on your remote?

I'd say it's just a separate little unit.

[br3ndan]

the ones ive read about use the exisiting one.

Just works together with the alarm.

SO im guessing pressing the remote turns off the alarm, sensors and imb. However if you turn on the car without entering in the keypad after i think 5 seconds the car will stall out.

But im sure theres many ways of doing it. For example making the keypad responsible for turning of the imb. So u dont enter in the code the car wont start.

Im pretty sure i saw a link to buying these things... ill try and find it. If i can ill edit this post and put the link.

EDIT: Yep im cool! i found it. Cost 125!. This one looks like it comes with its own imb. circuit. and they are quoting 60 dollars to install... too bad there over east... Group buy anyone?

A quick explanation....

This system will work with any vehicle, any alarm, even vehicles with turbo timers!!!

Basically the system will automatically arm 1 min after the ignition is switched off.

You can also have it set up for Anti-Hyjack mode where if you open the drivers door (even if the cars running) if you do not enter the pin number within 5 mins it will kick the immobiliser in and shut down the car. So if someone pulls you out of the car and drives off, they will only get as far as 5 mins down the road and then they will not be able to start the car again unless they have your pin number B) which is pretty dam cool.

Autowatch keypad works fine for me

Ask Brendan, he's seen it. Best investment for me so far : )

[Stealthed]

Yea i currently have the Autowatch Alarm system with Immobiliser, motion sensor, etc etc, So How much does it Cost to get one, have it installed, were is it to be located? and where can i get this done kthnxbai

campin here for more info... cough it up teo whered u get the goods?

Got mine done thru San Diablo alarms but i think he's sold his business already. It's a backyard job so wouldn't really recommend. Guy never fixed an alarm for a R34 Series 2 and blamed my car was a bitch to install - pfffttttt talk about professionalism. Took longer than expected and he overcharged me as well.

Would advise you guys to heard to Alberts Myaree. Went to there to sort out a initial wiring problem from the first installation. Forgotten the guy's name but the guy who attended to me is the only alarm specialist there and he knows his shit !!

Total for the alarm, sensors, keypad and boot release comes from the first install to approx $650 if i'm not mistaken. Had to spend another $80 4 months later to replace a module - the San Diablo guy installed the module where rain water will run thru hence it started to give out false alarm (wat a noob !!)

Having said that, if you already have an autowatch alarm adding the keypad will prob. be less than $200. Just ask around.
