hi guys, I wanted to find out if anyone on here has done an aftermarket alarm on their audi. I just got the car about 3 months ago and i figured i wanted a little more protection since i am installing a high end alpine system in it. I installed the alpine SEC-8063 alarm, which although a pain to install is one of the best alarms i have ever worked with. this thing has a ton of features and having an acctual controller that displays the information on the screen takes the guess work out of programming. I did just about everything i could with it aside from engine start, and although i know that its not a problem to do i wanted to see if anyone has done it and if they had any problems with the starting of the car. any info helps out. also this alarm has a turbo timer feature which you can run after a hard drive. that was the main reason for installing the system. So far with this alarm i can control the door locks, open the trunk, open the gas lid, roll up the windows, and down if wanted, turbo timer, has a dual stage shock sensor and dual stage proximity. again if you guys have any info or tips on the remote start and possible problems, do let me know. and btw i own my own car stereo shop so i've been around a lot of vehicles and products. If anyone is interested in this alarm (which has been discontinued) let me know I can still get a couple from a friends shop. they sold for $600 but now its up in the air. any offers will be considered.

Not interested in the alarm at this time but since you own the shop, are you interested in hardwiring a radar detector unit or other items in my A6?


Let me know via a post in the Off Topic Lounge.


Glad to see a few people from the Left Coast and SFO Bay on the forums.

Thanks,

Will let this one slide, since I been dying to use this smilie!

Andrei,

Sounds like that is quite an awesome alarm system and more than just a security feature. Car theft out here in Bahrain is pretty much non-existant but back in South Africa, a system like yours would probably be very welome, although certainly not inexpensive. I have been pretty happy with the basic factory fitted system

Andrei, any of those alarms left?
