OK, thanks for all the PM's and emails about this - Rather than repeat the answers, I'll list them here.

1. At this stage, there is a fair bit of interest - so the price is not negotiable at the moment (It's OK, it doesn't hurt to ask I know)

2. The Unit is approx 2.5 years old

3. The Unit is a Mark II unit

4. It is an Alarm, Immobiliser and Tracker all in one. I beleive it is a TWO point immobiliser - plus one additional point that they use to disable the car remotely if someone steals it with the keys.

5. Yes, it can be connected to your central locking (in fact - I have aftermarket Central locking in the Skyline and it's connected to that)

6. Montoring costs me $325 per year ( $25 per month - 1st Month FREE)

7. Brand new, these cost approx $2000

8. It works perfectly, I am not selling it because it is broken, I am selling the car it is fitted to and the person who will be buying the car does not want it (or the MOMO steering wheel, DC player, UHF Radio, Brand new Alloy wheels or PIAA Fog lights)

9. If you chose NOT to have it monitored, let it lapse etc - it opperates as a normal Alarm/Immobiliser.

10. The purchaser is responsible for fitting and monitoring.

11. Fitting cost is approx $305 (standard car) if you get quiktrak to fit it for you, if you get your Auto Elect or mate to do it or you do it yourself - you can probably get it fitted cheaper.

12. You will need to get a new wiring loom to fit the unit - why ? - Because the wires are all black and not labelled ( Labels are removed from the Loom once the unit is fitted). Cost of a complete new loom with Brand New wires, connectors, LED, Relays, Switches and Software upgrade is about $280 retail (from Quiktrak).

13. I am In Sydney - it is still fitted to my car if you want to see it working, I will be paying to have the unit removed from my car.

14. At the moment - They are the ONLY areas of coverage, Sorry, I am not sure when Canberra/Adelaide/Perth/Tasmainia or Darwin etc is coming on-line

Cheers

      Yeah its bad eh. Ey! Watch your mouth. Yep, spot on. The rear's are always gone too though from brake checking. I had them perilously close to a tree that we had taken down. I think the tree peeps may have taken it. Either for a trophy, or accidentally.

      f**kin' yikes! That insulation is the shittest stuff I have ever seen. You need to do an insurance job on that f**ker, pronto. WRT to the washer cover, I would have said that there'd have to be some at a wrecker, then remembered that it's a BMW, and reasoned that every single wrecked one would have been tailgating and so the front end would be trashed.

      Ok, so I got myself some X1 wheels really cheap to try out, they're a bit different and I like them but they're really narrow (18x8) they are available in staggered 18x8/9 also but really hard to find.  I kinda dig them, but not as much as the F10 19's I usually run, so these go into the wheel pile.         As I mentioned in another thread, I got a new exhaust. It's an off-the-shelf stainless one that fits OH-KAY. I don't love the tips size and how far they come out the back, I think I might cut the tips off and replace with some smaller (~3") ones that don't extend as far. It sounds really good though, I'm not sure if its just in my head but the car feels a little quicker, more responsive.      I fitted an eBay special front lip. Surprisingly it fit perfectly and all holes lined up. Its a little rickety but I haven't put any double sided tape on yet, I want to clean the front bar up where it has scraped the road a lot and fil in the number plate holes (or, get body coloured wrap to cover them - is this a thing?  I'm not sure if I'll leave it gloss or pain it matte. I really like it though, I don't particularly like the front bar without it, I don't really like the M-Sport and to get anything else is just too expensive. That said, I might need a new one now anyway as I dropped the car onto the jack after forgetting to put ramps under the front wheels. It bent a lot and while it did go back to normal after I got the car off the jack, I do fear I have not done it any favours.    Lastly, my headlights died. Different problems in each. They have gotten much dimmer over the past year or so, I put new (uber expensive) OSRAM bulbs in them but to no avail. One of them pointed at the ground and the other just kinda did its own thing with light working sometimes. Yeah, check this 18 year old BMW headlight wire. I reckon I know why they were stuffed.            BTW, the yellow and black is the power to the Xenons. Yikes. I hunted around an researched my options here. I would have loved to just get a replacement harness but not a thing. My car has adaptive headlights, that is they rotate left and right with the steering wheel. Good condition used adaptive xenons were over $700 each, non adaptive were around $400 each, but I couldn't help but think that they're all around 18 years old now, surely they'd have the same problems. So I looked at newer LCI headlights but they were even more expensive and I couldn't confirm that they'd be plug and play with lots of people having lots of opinions so not worth the risk.  I ended up getting brand new Chinese headlights from MARS. They're very close to OEM with only the angel eyes being a bit different. I didnt want crazy turn signals or sharp DRL's or anything. Not my bag.  They're not adaptive, I thought thats a feature I wouldn't really miss. So I coded that out.  The lights are awesome, they look so nice and they take so many years off the car. The angel eyes look great and the headlight brightness is ridiculous. I was so used to the old ones, I didn't realise just how bad they were. The new ones use the OEM bulbs, Xenon ballast and leveller motor which I was happier with. The only issue with them is that the rear cover is held on by SEVEN screws. This will be a nightmare to get to and open when I need to change bulbs.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Now that you mention it I can see those too. More subtle. The lighting and low resolution makes it hard to assess super well what's going on but what is visible is bad enough to pull the motor.
