Hi, I have been a 'b' owner since Nov 06 after longing for one for many moons! The wife spotted them first and almost bought one before me but thanks to Fiat's long waiting times and a useless and uninterested salesman she didn't. I've enjoyed some of the banter on the Forum pages and thought I should finally join the rest of the 'lunatics' (as my children have suggested..their words not mine). Can I ask advice from the great 'sages' out there whether they could recommend a suitable security system for my 'b', it has remote locking only. Thanks in anticipation, Stevo.:worship:
 
Hi Stevo;
Are you quite sure that your B has not got a factory fitted alarm already? I was under the impression that thay all had. There should be a box on the right hand side of the engine bay, in front of the battery with a key lock to turn it on/off covered by a black plastic weatherproof cap. It would work off the remote control fob. regards clive.
 
Not all B's had an alarm fitted, It was an optional extra. I am going to fit a TOAD alarm sometime this year. Its a good system that is modular so you can build on it as you go. Toad do everything from remote start 2 locking central locking at 10mph.

Take a look on ebay.

Hope this helps

All I've got is a flashing led that doesn't flash :eek: will get one eventually but as it's locked in the garage with two cars locked infront of that, i don't take my eyes off of it when it's out so it's pretty safe at the mo :)

There are lots of systems out there now relatively inexpensive some good, some rip off. Your best bet is a recommendation and if not shop about see what is available and prices before jumping in.
 
Thanks for the info so far! :) The car does not have any alarm and I checked this after buying and there is no isolating box or siren in the usual places
 
OH, I just thought they all had 'em!!
Mine doesnt work anyway!! The car came without the original remote/alarm blipper. I bought one but I couldnt get it to accept the programming so tomorrow I go and pick up the yellow relay/ remote alarm thingy as mentioned in a different thread foe less than half price:D
