Reading through the handbook it has it in there, plus there is an additional booklet too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezz Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Then surley Sky would know if it was a UK chassis number/registration it will have the factory system? Fairly sure they're a cat1 system. They're a bitch to chop out when you've lost the fobs, I know that much. Perhaps send them the alarm booklet? Does it have any kind of serial number noted in the booklet?

michael Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 It's not a factory fit alarm, they were fitted by the dealers in the UK. It's called a "Toyota 5000" but is actually a Scorpion 5000 cat 1, the Thatcham approval number is TC1-75/0694. The alarm doc describes it as: "The theft deterrent system fitted to this vehicle has designed in accordance with the recommendations of the association of British insurers. It provides a deterrent by combining an engine immobiliser with a security module that controls warning sirens" And it should have... Passive Arming 2 Stage Immobiliser Auto Reset Battery Backup Siren Door, bonnet and boot protection Ultrasonics Adrian Flux were happy enough to accept this on mine before I swapped the alarm for something else.
