| most alarms also have a function of autolocking after 3 mins. most fitters do not enable it though. |

3 minutes!
lol mine does it in 30 seconds.
So far I've only had trouble once, when getting a service, even after I told the guys DO NOT LEAVE THE KEYS IN THE CAR, they managed to get them locked in. So I got a fang around in a new BA Fairmont Ghia to drive home and pick up my spare key/remote. |
