I have insured my Glanza with Sky insurance and was told i needed a minimum of a Cat 2 on the car before they can send my all the documents through.

I dont know a great deal about how it all works so was wondering if anyone on here could give me some info.

I dont think i will have the car that long and dont really have the money for a Cat 1 so im going to go for a Cat 2.

I have seen some Cat 2 Immobiliser's for about £40 which come with the certificate for the insurance company BUT i am guessing the insurance company want someone professional to fit it so the price then comes to around £140.

I think £100 to fit someone that i could easily fit myself is a bit much.

Any have any ideas what i can do?

buddy toad do an alarm cat 1 or cat 2....all you need to do is ring them and they send out an engineer to fit it in and issue you the cetificate.


its round about 200 for cat 1 and cat 2 should be less

A place near me just fit us a cat2 with remote locking fobs for 140quid the standard cat2 is 90 fitted! I would shop round tbh. Your insurance company will want the certificate of fitting which requires a business name and stamp from a qualified fitter.

do i search on ebay for toad - i had a cat 1 toad alarm fitted at my work on my old car for 195 quid - think prices have increase to around 210 now.
But cat 2 alarms/immobilisr are around 140ish.

Does this work with central locking and put the windows up?

no, majority of time theres no motor in drivers door,so this needs to be added - around £25, plus the windows up ferature is around £30-50.

if you have a turbo timer currently the alarm wont interfere with it.

Theres a guy in leeds area - forget hsi name - but business is safe n sound - hes top bloke and he was the one i was on about.
