    I'm gonna buy my first auto, a Suzuki APV GA model. It's the low end APV with no power windows, locks etc.

    I tried reading the other threads, pero ang haba and parang ang bagal mag-load ng pages ng tsikot on my end.

    Baka may ma-recommend kayo na alarm for my plain vanilla APV.

    Nasa 5K budget ko at wala kasi akong garahe kaya I plan on investing on security. May mga batang tambay din kasi sa lugar namin na mahilig sumandal sa kahit anong bagay (lalo na sasakyan).

    Since walang central locking, papalagyan pa pala ito ng device for that, right? Ibang cost nanaman yun di ba? Mahal po ba palagay nun?

    Sensya na po at bagong auto owner lang ako at talagang limited alam ko sa mga sasakyan.

    Thanks, peeps!

    its better to canvas at banawe and araneta, may alarm na cost aroung 2thousand upto 5thousand plus depends on the brands... you'll also need an actuator, which is cost separately (no idea on the price though).

    couple of days ago, i got a clifford matrix which cost me 4thousand pesos at Jeff's shop located in araneta.

    Im using Autopage also in my car, rf-315, so far wala pa naman ako nagiging problema.

    *Tsuperman, ang piliin mo alarm bro ung madaming features, check mo ung specs nya. sa ebay ang daming murang alarm pati central lock, search k lng dun. And one more thing bro, pili ka ng magaling mag install.. un lng!

    hth.

    Ok ang autopage IMHO
    sa car ko nakainstall Autopage XT-59 lancer 97
    1.5K bili ng dad ko dito kasama install nito sa banawe (5 years ago pa to)
    alam ko phase out na tong model na to
    with auto start na
    cons ko lang dito masyadong sensitive lalo na sa mga motor na maingay at airplains
    pero may "valet mode" naman ito

    I decided to go with an AutoPage RF315 and had it installed in my APV yesterday, over at Blue Lazer.

    The people there were quite accommodating and patient at kahit madami akong tanong, never akong sinimangutan ng mga tao at mga technicians nila. I felt safe leaving my brand new APV at their care, even when we had to go to Le Ching for lunch.

    May mga nagpupunta pa dun na nagpapa-service ng mga sinaunang AutoPage alarms nila and all I can say is that they were treated properly.

    Eto breakdown ng nagastos ko:

    1. RF315 - PhP3,600

    2. 5-door central lock - PhP1,800 (they told me maganda daw yung gamit nila at yun din daw kinukuha ng Honda)

    TOTAL: PhP5,400. (Free labor, of course)

    Lifetime free service sya.

    Sabi nila, baka gusto ko daw palagyan ng parang "kuryente" yung APV. Yun bang pag may hahawak ng door handle, ma-shock sila. LOL

    Sabi ko mahirap na at marami tambay na bata sa amin, baka mademanda pa ako.

    OT: nagpakabit lang ako ng alarm today, at nung na install na found out that it does not have shock sensor and an LED light indicator, bad trip. Di ko na pinatanggal kasi its my fault di ko na inspect maigi. Anywa, san po may shop na nagbebenta ng dual stage shock sensor at LED indicator ng alar?
