    Default Where to get car alarm in Brisbane

    Does anyone know where to get a good car alarm system purchased and installed in Brisbane?

    I know JB and Wow sell them and install, but are they any good??

    Also, what are some good brands for aftermarket alarms? I've only ever had factory ones.

    I don't want another remote on the keyring!

    Thanks EQ. I got on to Steve today and he gave me a quote. Excellent pricing. Problem is, he is going away til the 10th of August. But I think we can wait, given the good pricing.

    Well Complete were offering the 80 series Mongoose upgrade alarm for $550 installed. He said $460.

    So yeah - very good. And if you vouche for his workmanship - then I'm happy!
