  • Which alarm

    I am thinking to put an alarm in and was wondering what one to use, I want it to interface with buttons on existing keys. Anyone have any recommendations

    Re: Which alarm

    Hi mudboy,

    I installed a Cobra unit myself, it integrates with the key entry system on the
    Prado and works very well.

    Has lots of programable options and is very flexible.

    I also installed the microwave sensor option which is great, if someone leans against the car
    to peer in the sensor detects it and the alarm chirps a warning to back off.

    You can also leave the windows down and if someone reaches in to take something the alarms will
    activate.

    I didn't use the immobliser part of the alarm as I thought the Prado was fairly theft proof but
    after reading some of the post about Prados getting stolen will probably revist the wiring in the
    future and splice the immobilser into the ignition system to prevent the vechile from starting if
    the engine management system is swapped out with another.

    I would pay to have someone install it for you though as there is quite a bit of wiring involved.

    Cheers

      Which alarm

      Thanks Leigh

      I have fitted one before with window interface and not in a hurry to do again so will get it installed, the only thing is finding a good place to install it, I hate letting people work on my cars who I don't know

        Hows the cobra going for you? what are the programming options and how easy is it to change them? with all the personal and 4wding gear that collects in the prado Im thinking of fitting an alarm, this will be the first alarm ive had. im also looking at the Meta system but theres a special on the cobra system in Oct where you get the basic setup plus microwave and volumetric sensors for $485 fitted (normal price is apparently $799), and apparently this is the system they a lot of car manufacturers use incl Toyota....

          Which alarm

          I did plenty of research and decided to put in the rhino rav3 which uses factory key and u cam use their fob also for 3rd key

          The reason why I picked this one for this is that it has 3 point immobilizer cobra only 2 and had in built turbo timer and plenty of standard features

          Price has it fitter for 450 and the company that fitted it was impressed with quality and will use these more

          Regards
          David
