If memory serves correctly, the manual states that there is a built in alarm and default is is set to off. HOWEVER, this was only for European models. It's not included for the rest of the world.
Similar to the running lights... SA does not have the alarm function. Getting it could be as simple as a software update on the computer or it possibly requires additional hardware. But bottom line is that here in SA there is no alarm on the car. |

Guys I have found the link for that alarm company. Check below and tell me what you think. Another question, will this effect out warranty etc if we have to fit this on?

Quickly checked through the manual, car has a factory fitted immobiliser. Checked through my insurance papers, mention is only made that the car must have a immobiliser.. Nothing about an alarm..

the way cops tend to swarm around my car to look at it wherever i park, i'd say it doesn't need an alarm, as long as you avoid areas that are off limits to cops..
