Never had one so I need to ask:
Features to look for?
Recommended brands?
How much should I expect to pay?
Good place in Sydney (preferably N / NW) to purchase?
Do they lower insurance premium?

Thanks.

: Never had one so I need to ask:

: Recommended brands? CODE, Alpine, Mongoose do some good ones
: How much should I expect to pay? $400 as a minimum.
: Good place in Sydney (preferably N / NW) to purchase? Any car audio place with a decent
workshop. Ask to see the workshop and if its nice and tidy they most likely take care of things
while they are in there. If its a mess then walk on by.

: Do they lower insurance premium? Yes, if its one that offers what your insurance company asks for.
usually they want three points of disablement, auto arming, and non colour coded cables. (The
installer chops off the cable lables during installation)

If your keen they are reasonably easy to install yourself. Obviously its all vehicle dependant.

Thanks. I'm always keen but unfortunately also almost always
incompetent in such matters...
