Soxxi Car Alarm - Mantiz Remote Key

I had been searching around for a better car alarm as my current one is just a remote to lock & unlock. It does not comes with alarm function. I did check with the Honda salesperson, but she told me it is to cut cost and I bought my City at a very low stock clearance price. So I had to look for a better one. Did some homework on car alarm and came to know there are lots of function, for example, immobiliser, trunk release, one way alarm, two way alarm, etc. I came to know ZMC alarm (www.zmc.com.sg) and call  to enquire. I am interested with their Zenesis alarm as it is very high tech. Should a car key be accidentally locked in a car, it can be unlock by just pressing a code on the windscreen. It also came with a feedback function, if someone disturb the car, it can send a signal to the car owner mobile phone. Wow, good alarm but the price is too high, it cost $438.

So my choice is reduced to a few models. For example, Steelmate or Spy alarm, but they don't have those remote key type. Initially I want a flip key type but the price is also high. The zenesis is those with a remote attached to a car key. I find it very inconvenient so I also rule out Zenesis. Decide to went to Soxxi today and found they have the widest selection of car keys and alarms. They have almost all car brands original key and they duplicate keys too! The flip key type cost $328, too expensive for me. So I decide on the remote key type. It cost $260 with installation, within my budget. The functions are as follows:

- Auto rearm

- Auto arm & unarm

- Auto central locking

- Arm  reminder (if forget to arm vehicle)

- Panic mode (to locate car with siren)

- Door open hazard lights indicator

- Trunk release (Did not install as need to add $50 and seldom need this function)

- Shock sensor (if someone disturb my car, it will sound off alarm, don't play play, hehe)

- Starter Killer

Below are some photos for some preview:

This is the front view of the remote key. It came with 3 buttons, namely Arm, Disarm & Panic (Car locating) respectively.

This is the rear view.

The key pouch is recommended by Soxxi. And they offer me each for $9.90, originally was $19.90. As I had purchased the alarm from them, they gave me 50% discount. So I bought 2 pairs as now I have 2 remote keys. It is so convenient now, I can keep the remote key in the pouch when not in use.

So far happy with this car alarm. Hope it give better protection against theft.
