Hey

Does anyone know of a easy to fit central locking and alarm system that i can retrofit to my mk3 Coupe ?

Had it broken into the other day .. Took around a K's worth of stereo system . the parcel shelf . Ashtray and managed to wrip the stitching from my oldschool black vw seats . they took so long to find ! WOnt be spending knowere near as much on my next system .

Has kinda changed my mood for the car might have to get rid of the back seats . loose the weight ... drop everything that i dont need essentially ..

Really needing some sort of alarm system though and central locking would help a great deal .

Dont want to loose the car ..

Help Anyone


Twice in one week my car has been broken into .. Smahed rear window this time ...

Robbed the rear badge ...

Smashed both wing mirrors ... This is becoming a joke ..

They did it with a drum of cooking oil pored it all over my rear seats ...

Have stripped it all out now inc spare wheel and all fittings .. seat belts ex.

Will be cheaper to buy a rear hatch than anything else .. Unfortinate that i cant get one the same colour as my respray !

ANother £40 to spend on paintwork .. Im glad i know a cheap place !

Hmmm think it was just a bunch of chavs to be honest mindless vandalism ... I wasnt the worst of a guy with a golf had dints put in 3 panels . smashed fromt and rear seats ... Oils everywere .. HE had a babby seat in the back ...

Nothing to rob from mine though now ... Just got a black tailgate looks reather amusing .. blaitently needs spraying !

The car is so much diffrent with no rear seats and spare wheel ..
Loads more steering ...

With a new 1.4SPI Throttle body form the scrappy and a chip to it also makes a astonishing diffrence picking up speed and slowing down ..

Got to look on the bright side .. Its not as homely but its loads more fun to drive .. Nippy and nimble ...
