costing 240 fully fitted,

Tempted to buy Dual Zone Proximity as an extra, but its anohter 120 on top.

Toad A850T is what im getting,

cant wait

oh and amps i kinda sorted today also so install wont be long away now!!

You'll need a good alarm like that once you've got all your install done!

Is the Toad A850T as good as the Clifford 300 - which is best?? At the moment Im getting the Clifford 300.

Also - should I get the proximity bleep for it, or are they a waste of money??

Noonster- im goin for the clifford 300 with proximity bleep.....it depends on what u want....if u want people to back off from ur car when they walk near it.. I was told it can get more annoying....but probably is worth it

Shauny - the way I see it is that I dont care if the beep gets anoying because Im not going to be near the car when the alarms on, Im going to be at football, shopping etc.... So its everyone else thats gonna get annoyed

Also - how much extra does the proximity thing cost??

the A850T is good as it uses the current remote u get with ur corsa,

with the clifford u get another fob which u have to use, thus the buttons on your key are useless.

Also i have heard some bad things about clifford, but hey, thats not for me to judge.

Im unsure if i should get the dual prox or not,

clifford all the way, more tunable and upgradable and extra buttons on the remote come in handy for boot popping, lights etc

I could or chose the ai606 or the A850T...

both just about the same - going for the A850T because it uses the original key fob.
