G'day all,
Um, Several weeks ago I went camping with my son and some fellas from work. A good day was had by all, cars got muddy and some beverages were had after a long days drive........At about 2-3am in the early morning my alarm system started going nuts.. The lights were flashing, siren was waking all the slightly intoxicated people up, and my remote was and as not working to switch it off...... After about 30 mins of blaring siren giving us all a headache, it was decided to cut the cable to the siren blaring in an effort to stop the noise...............denied................. apparently cutting the cable does not stop the sound.............SO it was then tossed into the lake the muffle the volume, in which it took about 5 mins under water to finally stop.
So after all this, my question is.............
Is there a water proof/ resistent type alarm box out there that I can install/wire into my existing system??
If not, should I uninstall/ remove the complete package from my Patrol?? It is a newer system, and installed just prior to my purchase of the vehicle.
Thoughts/ opinions please
Thankyou in advance ( slightly drunk k)atm, cant thin
