HI all,

My M35 has what i thought was an aftermarket alarm though appears to be a factory option. (it looks like attached pic(from catalog)).

My question is it seems to be too sensitive as i cant even leave my windows down an inch when i park without traffic setting it off.

Anyone know if there is an adjustment or not? (generally a screw or something)..

Appreciate your help

rip it out. they false if you leave the window cracked a hair. been there several times. to make matters worse they are put in with sctochlocks and they WILL fk up and strand you.

its a dealer fitted item. I have removed hundreds of them.

drop the drivers side dash and unplug them. there will be an oval module that will have a red & white of set 2 pin plugs . pull those out.

I would say pull the lot but then you will probably lose the folding mirror thing that everyone seems to like.

thanks for the info! will attempt to wrap them up first. though will remove if i have too.. Chris i know your the AV man when it comes to stagea's so i can also ask if you know how to remove this aftermarket lcd mount? (attached) apparently another factory aftermarket job (carrozeria)

i simply want to try and remove that metal plate at the front so i can prepare to mount my android tablet.. (though i think that metal plate is actually what holds the whole thing in place.. though i could be wrong..

actually i was hoping i could use it for the android tablet.. though i wanted to remove that vertical metal strip in the middle of it.. though from what i can feel around it seems thats what actually mounts the mount.. i can feel 2 nuts on the inside of the plastic..

So i think ultimately ill use some velcro.. so i can easily remove the tablet when i want too.. though most of the time it will be a permanent fixture

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
