the other thing is what other options are there, as said this is not perfect, once it triggers excellent 1) This alarm, that alarm, this tracker that tracker and it's still gone!! we may aswell all give up and leave the keys in the ignition, a little note on windscreen please take me
2) will this put you off, it might but I don't think it should because of the above, the Car is much safer with it than without.
You should all know the problem by now, just need to get a good Autoelectrician/alarm fitter to help overcome this minor hiccup in what is a very effective anti-hijack device.

I used to have fishing hooks superglued to the wires around my ignition barrel on my last car. Time for something similar methinks 
Or wire the trip to a different circuit

maybe as not as normally fitted, but still a good bit of kit. To do or fit nothing would be more foolish IMHO.
Most opportunist Theives wouldn't know it
If you have it wired up differently may even mis-lead a pro Many peeps with it already fitted knew of this issue and had it "modified" one way or another.Tony

BTW this is a good bit of kit and the car is much safer with it than without
40% of Emails knew off the problem and 20% have been modded to take this loophole out

i'm quite worried about this now. I was going to buy this for my car to go with the tracker and cat 1 already installed but i am starting to have doubts about it now. If it is very simple to disable then it might not be worth buying. Is there anything that i could tell the fitter if i did buy this to avoid this problem??
