    This Toad Ai606 Thatcham Category I Alarm system should be fitted by an experienced VSIB installer, this is due to the fact, firstly you will have comeback if anything goes wrong and secondly, insurance companies now ask for a certificate of instalation if you mention the category on your insurance quote. I found this alarm very reliable and more than adequate for its purpose. Its a well know brand with a very good reputation.

    My alarm has been on the car now for 3 years and 7 months !!! its still working perfectly !!!
    my conclusion is that most of the problems mentioned come from the actual wirng of the vehicle and not the alarm unit itself.
    these alarm are infact fitted to a certain specification, otherwise they do not meet thatcham category 1 approval.
    on top of that, every installer knows this, and has also read the codes of practice, regarding the fitting and erm what else ???
    oh yeah...
    your insurance would ...

    Wouldnt bother with a Toad Ai606 car alarm. If it wasnt needed for my insurance I wouldnt have it, nor would I ever consider buying a toad alarm ever again, after speaking with several other people who are experiencing thesame problems with this alarm. Complete waste of money, now have to get it taken out and a new one fitted, I cant keep jump starting my car everyday.Probably the worst £250 I have ever spent. Doesnt do what I want it to do, flattened my cars battery. Poor product, Ive us ...

    Just an update to the review I did earlier on the Ai606. It does lock you out of the car as one reviewer said but this is the anti hijack system which would be very useful in car par parks etc to stop anybody opening the door when you have just switched on as that is the best time for them...this can be switched off as so can the interior sensors its adjustable to suit, in case you wanted to leave your windows slightly open, if you have the booklet that came with the alarm it involves the switch ...

    Toad Ai606 alarm keeps going off at any time since I bought my car, phoned toad, said it needs a service. Guy came disconnected the ultasonics inside the car because its a convertible and activates on noise, rain on the roof can activate the ultasonics.
    The car also has a microwave sensor fitted and works fine.
    The service guy couldn't find why it activates on occasions, what was the money for then?
    Called him back a month later and he changed the bonnet switch by chance it was a little rusty a ...

    Had the Toad Ai606 fitted to my Toyota Supra. Workied fine until this glitch. Quite disappointed with installer's attitude - quite patronising and even rude at times...
    Had this system fitted and all seemed well until 3 months later when I started having problems.
    Basically, when I disarmed the alarm with the remote it unlocked and the hazards flashed as usual but it didn't 'chirp'. When I went to start the engine it kept on making a ticking noise that sounded like it was coming from the starte ...

    I would have thought fitting this alarm to a new car would have been straight forward. Think again. Don't fit to new Zafira diesel.

    I had my Toad Ai 606 fitted to my Nissan Skyline by Car Alarm UK. They came round to my house within a week of me ordering and fitted the alarm to a very high standard. I would say an excellent alarm fitted by an even better company.

    I fitted this Toad Ai606 Thatcham Category I Car Alarm system to my Toyota Supra and it has performed very well since. I have had NO false alarms.

    The only thing that is a concern is that if you start the car and jump back out and close the door behind you, the alarm locks the car doors within 10 seconds.

    So you could find yourself locked out of your running car as the valet company did despite me warning them. If you have the 2nd remote easily available you can get sraight back in, but ...
