congrats, there are aftermarket options available you will have to ring up some car accessorie places, dont know if genuine would cost an arm and a leg.

goodluck!

that would be freaky if some had the same system and it activated yours on a freeway or somethin lol. i know likelyhood is very very low buy hypothetically would be weird.

The unit and the receiver are only about 15cm from each other, I thing the range is fairly limited, so the chances of that happening are probably zero. But it would be freaky....

got all the parts except for the loom and brake switch. I went to a wrecking yard today to look for a loom, it looks like you need to replace the whole loom on the drivers side that goes into the engine bay and into the fuse box? is this correct or is there any easier way?
