Cressa 44 Posted July 10, 2020 So I am wanting to replace my 25 year old, one key fob!! Alarm system with something I can trust. I thought this was simple as I wanted a toad ai606 system. I contacted a guy near me and have been informed they aren't made anymore, but if I could get one he will fit it. I have contacted other companies with no response and even the guy on ebay (southern car security) does not have any, even though they are still advertised. So, what good category 1 system do you have or would recommend, that is available. Or so you know someone that has one for sale. I was offered a laserline system but it has ugly square grey interior sensors..., so that's a No No My car isnt coming out of the garage until this is done💥 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted July 10, 2020 Mate you can still get an AI606 off ebay but the price has doubled in the last 9 months by the looks of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) To be fair this is only £40 more then what I paid for mine. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOAD-Ai606-THATCHAM-CAT-1-CAR-ALARM-the-Lateset-Toad-Digital-Tilt-Sensor-T-TS1/290482159852?hash=item43a21600ec:g:ovsAAOSw0e9UtZos Ceds in Brum fit them for £120.00 Edited July 10, 2020 by Keyo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks tho mate My advice chap is call them direct and ask them a distributor that has one for sale ot indeed they can sell you one direct- also a chance to see there other Cat 1 packages- they also own scorpion. http://toadalarm.com/product-category/car-security/ Also try that ceds alarm In Brum he has a fair few in stock- he dont do mobile fitting though.

Dox 23 Posted July 10, 2020 If you open up the fob is there a sticker inside stating the frequency it works off (###MHZ)? I'm sure at one time you could have clones made? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cressa 44 Posted July 16, 2020 The picture doesn't help me much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted July 16, 2020 Solder looks dry on tr1? But it is a bit blurry. usually it’s on a sticker inside the case? It does look like they’ve been resoldered before? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ben_wooduk 0 Posted July 17, 2020 Quite interested in this as I desperately need to replace my Scorpion alarm! I've fitted the AI606 to my previous 2 Corrado's but open to other options .. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cressa 44 Posted December 19, 2020 Managed to get one off Ebay. Just need to decide whether I remove the old and fit this, or I get an installer to do it. My garage is cold.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Going rate is about £100 - 150 for mobile installation if local - at least you get a Thatcham certificate completed off a recognised installer for insurance purposes.

Cressa 44 Posted December 19, 2020 Agreed 👍 I'm just fussy about removing all the trim etc so that nothing gets botched or broken. As a nice touch I relocated my old led to the blank at the heated window switch, so I need to do the finishing touches Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
