Is there anyone who installed other types of alarm? how about the SPY alarm as promoted in the commercial threads? Or crimestopper? Any feedback?

Anyone knows anything for alarm?

For what I know, the alarm used by TC is Wheels. When I installed, the service agent told me that the guys from Wheels will be installing it and not TC mechanics.

Hi Lations, I have finally saved and installed the TCM alarm - to my surprise, it does not come with any LED light in front.....

Can anyone here willing to upload the manual for the alarm system manual to this forum? I like to know are the other functions for this alarm system.

BTW,anyone care to enlighten as to what is the rear boot alarm system as indicated in the poster?

Thank you

I still prefer Nissan Sunny alarm which comes with the car. The sound "ti tock" from Nissan Sunny sounds much nicer than the car horn.

I installed the "car horn" alarm, no choice cos i often lost my car in shopping center carpark. :)

Hi! Yup, i got the alarm from TCM and changed my horns to loudest legal ones u can find. Just go to shop and ask, they will know.

Best investment i ever made to my car coz now got no problems finding my car in carpark plus saved me from being banged by jokers who change lanes without checking blind spots. Both times are "big" cars, 1 was a Camry, other time was a BMW. Hmm.... wonder why people who drive big cars always like that? Coz my dad also drives like that which is why my wife n i both very scared to sit in his car.

No, lah! Seriously, a horn doesn't affect the mechanical running or safety of the car so it will not void the warranty. Besides, when u change yr horns, the shop will return your original horns so u can replace them in future if u want to.

haha.. okie.. sorry newbie mah.. anyone change horn at tcm? tot of changing during 5k servicing...

ERhh.. Tan Chong don't upgrade horn leh... I also went to auto bacs to get a pair of bosch.. Check out the current rating of the horns before installation. I believe our stock draws 3.5As of power, the bosch ones i got are rated at 4As. Should have more then enough margin so that we don't blow the fuse

By the way, Autobacs now have sale on the bosch horns can go check them out.

Rate the alarm by TCM please on the scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best. Thought of getting one for me car.

turret · « **Reply #56 on:** April 29, 2009, 09:46:56 PM »

for me, i will give 3.5 out of 5.

the short of 1.5 is due to the following feature:
1. its lacks a shock sensor.
2. the led is not on the windscreen so it is not that visible.

Aust · « **Reply #57 on:** May 01, 2009, 01:15:26 PM »

So the price of the alarm is still the same at the $150 range at TCM?
