Most insurance companies will want a CAT 1 Alarm before considering you for a policy. Some will let you off with just a CAT 1 immobiliser.

SOME..want a CAT 1 alarm and a Tracker system. It all depend on where you go. I suggest you look at the insurance forum and read about other peoples recommendations/experiences.

I use Adrian Flux and they screwed me so I would advise giving them a wide berth.

Good luck...it's a jungle out there.
