I caught some Feckin lowlifes sniffing around the wifes SXi last night. I caught one of the scum and I think he may be off school for a week or two as a result!.....anyway how can I make it look like it has the standard Vauxhall alarm fitted? can I just buy the hazard light switch with the flashing LED or is there a bit more to it????

Buy an LED and put it anywhere in view should make them think twice.
But Splash out on an Alarm as the scum will eventually break in.

the Vaux alarm was £250 i think - but that was from the factory.
I have a Toad alarm - bought after someone tried to smash the passenger side window.
I paid £291 all in - with tilt sensors etc from Sextons

Try a Varad Security Scanner, it works with or without an alarm system, it projects a logo message "SECURITY" message on any surface inside your car. Check it out:
