I supose an aux output on the interface would be good to hook up a massive siren to scare the buggers off.
once i get round to it, im going to connect the alarm on van to my air horn. thatll get attention.

Is there any vehicle alarm systems out there that text the owner if an "incident" occurs?
not sure of any alarms that will text/call out, but, you could always use a GSM dialler from a standard alarm and (somehow) get a trigger signal from alarm. power supply would be 12v from the battery (also another thing ill eventually get round to installing)

 
There are quite a few vehicle alarms that will do GSM functions (text status of inputs etc.., talkback) and also have GPS receivers in so will do some form of tracking. Last time I looked a tracker with SMS functions and aux inputs could be had for well under

 
Sorry to hear what happened switch. Id be lost if my kit was stolen. I hope everything sorts itself out mate and you find out who the thieving ba5tard scum bags are.Anyway this has got me thinking (as it has others I believe) about van security. Lee you have just fitted a bargain alarm system to your vehicle. Was this straight forward? How much we talkin? (if you don't mind me asking).

I would like to install some sort of security system to my Ford Transit (52). Basically all I would reguire is some sort of recognition of any doors opened, any lifting/tilting of the van. I supose an aux output on the interface would be good to hook up a massive siren to scare the buggers off. Is there any vehicle alarm systems out there that text the owner if an "incident" occurs?

Dpn't really know much about vehicle alarms, but any help/guidance would be much appreciated

Cheers.

Are we? I thought this was a Plumbers forum? :|

I had to park the van in a different place to usual the other night, in the morning the paddlock at one end of the tube was in two, nothing taken obviously after copper must have been disappointed with plastic conduit in there!

 
few things im going to query with them on the phone in the morning.. i have no excesss on my window replacement so should get a full price.. tools are covered new for new, and have provided all receipts to them, most tools brought in the last 3 months.

not excepting a measly offer of them, when they charge me enough in the first place.
