Did you go for the 'F' siren? - I am assuming that the 'F' fitted (as the bodyshop) fitted mine - just wondering if that is the current siren part number and fitting is all good?  :happy2:

last night I bought the siren with the C suffix and have just been mailed from the parts company to say C is the old part and I'll be getting one with the F suffix as that is the current part and it'll work fine.

Mine was a revision F. The rivets are 6mm diameter. Most rivet guns don't handle rivets that large. Maybe try to find some suitable plastic captive nuts to push in the holes and use screws instead.

Re-opening old threat .....

I have recently replaced my alarm siren as it was draining my battery.

I have the F revision fitted but the siren is not sounding still, only indicators flashing. Noting mention of a internal battery, does this need to charge before working?

Any help appreciated.

thank you
