Beware alarm fitters
#1
I've had the concept 300 fitted by CarAlarmsUK.
I returned to my car just as the guy was finishing the install.
He has drilled the bulkhead, without asking if it was ok.
He has sited the alarm, fixed by bracket to the bulkhead;
its hanging over the turbo, next to the intercooler.
Me : do you realise thats about the hottest place in the engine bay
him : yea.
Me : hmm, you reckon that siren will be ok then.
him : oh yea.
Didnt drive it till i left work. Start it up, whats this vibration.
The guy had sited the fixing for the bracket in between the servo pipe and the brake line.
weight of the siren on the bracket bouncing up and down on my brake pipe.
Also siren chaffing against the intercooler and a heat shield.
Feckin w@nkers.
My conversation with caralamuk tomorrow is going to be good.
So if anyone has had an install by these people i suggest you check it out.

They are coming out Tuesday, to reposition and bringing some
different brackets.
Hopefully they have done their homework, like good boys this time;
and it will be sorted, cos they've used the get out of jail free card.
