monk 0 Posted May 22, 2006 I've been offered a brand new clifford concept 650p G5 alarm by a friend for £100. Unfortunately this doesn't come with the free installation. Does anyone know a cheap decent place to get this fitted in the south of england? (cost etc.) near bournemouth. would anyone recommend fitting this myself? (how easy etc. problem for thatcham/insurance??) thx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mtc R32 0 Posted May 22, 2006 The Clifford alarms are very complicated, unless you know what your doing, Forget it!!!!! Sorry i live midlands area, so can't suggest anyone your end..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted May 22, 2006 I am fitting a concept 500 to my car myself, so it is possible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monk 0 Posted May 22, 2006 been offered £150 to fit, from a reputable G5 main dealer. does this sound too much? (he reckoned it was a whole days work) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(he reckoned it was a whole days work) A days work sounds about right, I had a concept 50 fitted years ago and that took hours! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monk 0 Posted May 23, 2006 No more available at this price unfortunately. There is a guy on e-bay that sells them pretty cheap sometimes £150 (or thereabouts) called nokia-bits2. I think you've got to really have it fitted by a G5 specialist though (another £150), then you've got someone to blame if it goes tits up! basically opened the box today, and just went.......arrrse. I really wouldn't trust myself with the wiring on this (and i've done my fair share). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickRStorm 0 Posted May 23, 2006 I've got a 650 on mine & it does take a day to fit. Also just had to take it back because the siren stopped working. Turned out to be "water ingress" and it had fried the controller board too. As it was under a year old, my alarm company changed it out without charging for labour, but I have to wait for Clifford to decide if they'll pay the £60 for the replacement parts :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monk 0 Posted May 24, 2006 Yeah, thats exactly why i think i'll get someone approved to fit the alarm. If I wire the headlamps to the windscreen wipers or something (put a sensor in the wrong place), I probably wouldn't know what is damaged, and probably wouldn't get any backup either.
