I appreciate the response. You make a good point, however there are cases where an alarm can be somewhat valuable. 1) Your car gets hit/bumped in the street in front of your house. You'd at least know about it and have a chance to go outside and see who caused the damage. Most people are not honest enough to leave behind their contact info. 2) A smash and grab of sunglasses, loose change, etc. that may inadvertently be left in the open. Again, if the car was within earshot (home, work...) you could save your valuables from disappearing. A couple months back a coworker of mine had his Ford truck door lock broken by some punk who wanted his camera that was not properly tucked under the front seat. We heard his alarm go off and ran outside and watched some kid running off. The camera was saved. Unfortunately the scum got away. The most likely way your Bimmer will be stolen is by flatbed. Someone smart enough to come with a flatbed is also probably smart enough to rip out the rear wheel liner and cut the siren wires. They know what they are stealing if they've got a flatbed. I'm looking for the smash and grab or hit and run protection that the OEM alarm offers. it may be arguably small, but its definitely better than not having it. About Remotekey, I like what you've done and I guess you definitely address the needs of a good number of BMW owners. |

The new harnesses just arrived today - we will be scheduling an install this week for photos.

I have a '09 that was built right around the date that BMW made the change. Is there a way to determine if my car is prewired for the alarm? I do not have the premium package and therefore do not have the 'clown nose'. At least I think that is why I don't have it. So .... it doesn't sound like I would need the new harness. Please let me know.

Pricing is on our website, so we can keep this thread technical-related.

No, there is a separate harness included that must be routed to the mirror - this only takes about 10 minutes at most.
