Will do.....livid as at work i don't have a car space as i'm a contractor but asked to park there (usually half empty) as I had to disconnect the battery so it doesn't keep going off but can't lock the car...Secuirty guard was arsey though I followed someone else in.
He then goes crying to the receptionist who asks me to remove my car - told her the problem and she said it was unfair to people who have spaces............
I then called her back to say I'll move it in 5 minutes so I can tell the PM I have to go and get this sorted so she goes to HR and asks them to tell me to move it....
F*&king jobsworth
Thinking about taking the siren out and leaving it as is....spent far too much on the car 4 months already and TPS want £100 for a new siren and it might not even be that.
Rant over...

Will get the codes read today and see what comes back.

I replaced the alarm siren on mine not so long ago and its a simple job with the right tools.....but......here's what I learnt.
Once you take off the wheel liner, you DO have to drill out the rivets that hold it on. It's held in a metal carrier.
You need 6.4mm rivets! and unless you are The Hulk you will also need a Lazy Tongue Riveter. It was a pain getting these rivets but I have a bag of them now. You will need 2 of them.
The alarm siren is about £90 from TPS. It's simply a plug and play component.
I hope this helps. :happy2:
