Clifford/Viper Electro Luminescent

[KenDiriwan]

Hi all,

I have long seen this little interesting stuff and planning to get one myself of course with an alarm system itself.

So in case any of you do not realize what this is. It's called Electro Luminescent Indicator to be stick on window and it blinks gracefully when alarm is armed. Installed example below :

VIPER 620V DEI EL

Question, does this feature only compatible with certain security system? Or it is only an extra feature include in this higher package from Clifford/Viper itself. As i googled, it seems can be purchased individually. Ranging RM80-RM120 depends on brand/dealer.

Deter? More to alert the thief what type of alarm you have so they know what to use to disable it.

that is a good point, but somehow it seems this badge is applicable eventhough you are not using particular brand alarm itself? meaning you might as well using some other random alarm system but sticking this badge example clifford.

It probably is connected to the alarm module which is why it blinks when the car is armed. If you don't want to connect to the module it's a simple matter of connecting the transformer to a live point which syncs with ignition. But I personally (right now) can't think of any live point that'll be enabled when the ignition is set to off.

Can be installed by itself.. thief deterrent sticker.. lol.. saw accessory shop offer it.

My immobilizer cuckcoo, sometimes I have trouble starting it with the key, I think that's the best security system available - a cuckcoo immobilizer.. would only fail against the mighty tow truck.

Having what of type of alarm in the car should be as discreet as possible, to deter theft. The more guesswork presented to the thief, the more the thief is discouraged.

Point in case, would anyone feel comfortable telling their neighbors that they are using padlock brand XYZ, made in China, 6 inch size, @ their house gate?
