Good evening
I'm toying with the idea of getting an alarm fitted to my car. The secure garage I park in has had a few car break ins recently. Annoyingly, if someone can enter the garage, they have all night to quietly break into the car.
I avoid leaving things in the car, iPods and related cables etc.
But I visited a car audio shop today and spoke to a nice chap who has been installed alarms for 27 years. He has recommended Autowatch as a company and rates them highly. The remote is nice and small, only two buttons and the alarm itself is easy to use. But at £220 fitted its pricey.
So do car alarm prevent theft, could an led light on the dash work equally as well, or a steering lock?
