Sounds fun...

I'm putting tyres on mine on Saturday

actually came in before after doing one already, I'll have them all finished in a couple hours

Then going to redo them with silver paint instead of clearing the bare metal and having the same problem later on, masking them will be ever more fun

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Alarm key fob always keeps running out of battery, urgh. Will need to invest in some rechargeable or a stash of batteries now zzz

this plus every other electrical problem in my car.

re-connect battery after it goes dead in 2 weeks, alarm arms itself and you cant open any doors so gotta walk around the car for 15-20mins pressing the button to try and disable it. wish I could get removed, but brings down the premium :(

2 weeks... what else is there that's drawing power? you could test the current draw of the alarm / car with everything turned off

Since the battery has been dead before, it might have lessened capacity now... do you have a proper 3+ Stage Mains Plug-In Charger? Alternatively, you could buy one of those little solar panels which tickle charges when the car isn't running to keep it topped up :) Worked great for my dads old boat when we didn't go near it for a few months at a time.

Lol I've never come across an alarm that's ment to be good that has actually worked like it should!

I've had my siren literally explode battery's out of their holder twice which has caused it to be un-responsive to the key fob and the valet button inside.. I've had to cut the alarm out with a box cutter in the middle of the city to make it stop going off, I had it go off parked in my garage and it was unarmed which required I cut it out again to stop it.

Remote start neutral switch breaks every few months.. I could go on and on!

No wonder 'top of the range' viper alarms have lifetime warrantees, they break all the time.

You'll have to tell me what brand alarm to steer clear of when I get my next car!

Same here, battery in the siren exploded on my Viper, repaired under warranty. The USB rechargable fob is great though.

      For what it's worth (I'd never looked at the button closely enough to work out it has a person on it!) with the switch 'active' double-pressing the unlock on the remote will cause lights to turn on. As I recall it will cycle through plain-unlock, unlock-with-park-lights and unlock-with-headlights as you repeatedly double-press unlock.

      I'm not defending Haltech. They had some golden years, but their history of problem products goes back a loooong time before that and now. My bro-in-law swore off them 15 years ago. Same stuff. Firmware bugs, patchy tech support complete with total ignorance of what was going on. Doesn't mean that there are not 5 or 6 other excellent options - most of which were also born in Australia.

      I agree their STREET is limited in features, but both their RACE and PRO models have everything you could possibly need (I.E Knock, Built in EGT, Built in Wideband, Dual DBW, etc.) It's also cheaper in comparison with anything Haltech has to offer and more importantly from what I hear it actually works well.  I'm a little bias these days as Haltech has really turned into a pile of poop lately.. I don't know what's happening with their firmware team but I'm thinking it's outsourced and their cutting costs. There's always massive bugs, they're not doing any testing, there's no revision control (I.E They acknowledged a few months back that they accidently released an unfinished firmware). It feels like they're being run by bean counters vs actual software & electrical engineers. They seem to be to busy releasing new products as opposed to fixing software issues. As of 2-3 weeks ago they started a beta program to presumably op the rest of the end users out of unwillingly testing firmware's. I'm happy they're starting to listen to all the complaints. Hopefully it gets better fast.

      Any plans to seal it from the cabin? It will throw plenty of oil/grime over the years. On my auto to manual Stagea there is a custom ally sheet  to cover most of the hole then the standard rubber seal is attached to that to join to the shifter
