    jaycar does sell the neutral switch, or used to at least....


    Anyhoo - Jaycar Shadow alarm, LA8970 + LA8975. Standards approved, 3-point immobiliser with all the features you need.

    If you want, you can even add microwave proximity detection.
    ...... butt scratcher?!

    There is a good reason the majority of GOOD alarm vendors dont sell a remote start car alarm. They suck wang.


    Furthermore, buy a decent alarm, not an ebay piece of junk. I've found most of them come from some very dubious characters - one of them used to frequent the old forums under the name "alarmguy" and "hotwrx".
    Jaycar sells pager alarms!?

    They used to sell the remote start kind too and from what i have seen their alarms are pretty much the same quality as the ebay jobbies too.

    Heres a sydney based dealer i find he has really competitive prices.

    I strongly feel an alarms performance is determined by its installation! Auto sparky for sure!

    notice that i did not recommend the Steel Mate alarms??
    ... for good reason too. However they are better than those ebay junkheaps - but still not great.

    Stick with anything standards approved.
