kards, mahal din ung syo ah. Is it advisable na palitan ko ung clifford ko with the mannix?

**Anton** · July 16th, 2003 12:47 PM

the clifford a3 is around 7500 at maspro
the mannix is 7500 at ginza
both are in banawe

actually i could buy the clifford (bec i like its reliability and and 'pin code' disarming system) and just buy the intellistart system but thats an additional 5500

if im not mistaken, the mannix tells the owner through the remote if its alarming or not... is that true otep (ur friend has one right)

i dunno... m still not decided... my tita just lost her pajero kasi at chili's greenhills while parked in front with the alarm armed and all

are you kidding me???

Dont DOWNGRADE your alarm system. Keep the Clifford. Usual price of the Matrix RS3 including the installation runs from $600-$900 acording to Time Magazine. If you can have it installed for $500.00 (basic features, no remote start or anything) then thats a bargain.

Anton, Clifford Matrix RS3 is also a two-way remote (notifies you with a beep and or vibrate when alarm is triggered)

Make sure you look for the feature... CODE HOPPING :cool:

Wag kayong padadala sa "colored LCD screen" ng ibang alarm system. This is how they try to market their product. Kumbaga aesthetic reasons lang kung bakit mo binili. Clliford (DEI Electronics), how could you go wrong?

Highly Recommended.

gamit ko mannix, ok gamitin long distance. mahilig din kasi ako sa autostart. yung mannix pag autostart di aandar yung aircon. nagpakabit din kasi ako dati ng avital with autostart pero relay lang. pwede mo iwan on aircon para pagsakay mo naka on na aircon. good price na yung 7500, kasi kuha ko niyan mga 3 months ago 9500. di ko sure pero sabi ng installer pag palit daw ng car battery maeerase yung programming and kailangan ipaprogram uli.

**Karding** · July 17th, 2003 04:33 AM

PROMDIBOY, nasubukan mo nang alisin ang battery mo? Kasi tatlong beses ko nang inalis ang car battery ko pero yung memory the same pa din. I believe, the memory from the security system module is a non-volatile one. Baka gusto lang ulit kumita ng installer mo kung sakaling ibalik mo at pa reprogram, hehehe.

I will agree with Karding on DEI products. I have DEI's Viper 800ESP (www.directed.com) [$350 installed] I also have a manual that's why I didn't get the remote start.

with a Backup Battery (520T) [$50 installed]

and two(2) Mini Piezo Sirens "pain generators" inside the cabin (513T) [$10 each off eBay + $50 installation]

**Karding** · July 17th, 2003 05:31 AM

I need to get one or two of those "pain generators" :lol:

**Anton** · July 17th, 2003 02:35 PM

what are the pain generators for? are those alarms (viper 800esp & clifford mannix) available here in the phil already?

promdiboy: is the led system of ur mannix blue?

**OTEP** · July 17th, 2003 04:09 PM

Some Pioneer head units can be configured to act as 'pain generators'. Ganun gamit namin sa MB100 at Pajero. May door sensor siya and if the faceplate is not installed within the alloted time (i.e. locked in glovebox or with owner), nakupo ang sakit sa tenga. hehehe.

DEI madaming products.

Viper ata most popular nila.
