Thinking about it, I remember seeing the connector for the power sounder under the scuttle when we fitted LPG, so I'm guessing the wiring is in place if the alarm bits aren't.

The alarm is usually a function of the central locking ECU, so either you need to change that (and reprogram the remote keys to the new one) or maybe the alarm functionality is there but needs a Tech 2 to enable it once the sensors and sirens are fitted.

sounds like the alarm aint fitted to the gls then,but if the wiring is there you could probably buy the bits from someone who is breaking a car in the for sale section :y

mines a 96,it has an alarm as standard,as mentioned power sounder disconnected might be worth investigating first :y

Same here, always goes off in the summer when I lock the car with the windows open   ::)

Been out all day but out of sheer interest I pulled the covers from where the door piller sensors would be.  No wiring there at all.

I was remembering that someone told me years ago that they did a lot of standard wiring so that the dealers just had to plug relays a fittings in for the optional extra's.  Maybe it was just for the fog light kits etc.

Cheers Kev,

its just an idea for the furture thats all.
Not that i think anyone would want to steal my migg....but you never know!


They wouldn't dare!

I thought alarms were fitted as standard... you'll probably find its been disconnected. Hopefully for you... it'll be cheaper and less hassle with the other half..lol ;)
