To revive this thread, anyone who knows where I can get someone credible to install a Sigma S30 alarm? Specifically, someone who has done it before successfully. On Thu, Feb 6, 2014 at 2:45 PM, Solomon Mbũrũ Kamau <solo.mburu@gmail.com>wrote:
When I take my car for valuation, the insurance guys and valuation firm ask me to state, by filling a form, what is my car alarm. The, nevertheless bother to check whether that's what I have installed in real sense.
My car has a key alarm, which came with the vehicle from the manufacturer's and the locally assembled one.

Dennis, that's the alarm's sensitivity settings, and that can be adjusted.
I have reservations regarding insurance companies' insistence that an alarm be installed, yet they do not check the quality of the systems.
My car came with a full anti-theft system from the manufacturer, but my insurance required me to install another locally even after I demonstrated its features.
Afterwards I had the local alarm disconnected from the car's systems but I couldn't get the original one working like before. The features I lost: I could use the original one to roll up/down windows, open/close sunroof remotely before. And it would close all open windows/sunroof 5 seconds after being armed. Also, before, if one tried to open a door with the system armed, it would give an audible beep (like from a watch) on the first two attempts, then sound the alarm for subsequent attempts - this comes in handy when one's absent-minded. This feature now works only for the driver's door.
The local dealer would charge and arm and leg just to try and get it working as before, with no guarantees.
To date I wish I'd just gone to River Road and printed a certificate of installation.
Regards, Steve
