    There was an OEM alarm available back in the day. I still have mine in the R5, and I
    turn it on with a switch marked with a fog light. If it does get stolen, the thief won't
    have a clue on how to turn it off, but will be advertising its theft very loudly every
    300 yards!

    I took it to a garage in Norfolk, with a view of trading it in for a Mk1 Laguna. The
    salesman insisted he took it out by himself. It was obvious from half a mile away
    he'd been pressing buttons he shouldn't. I just shrugged my shoulders and smiled.

    Regards,
    Steve

    Oh wow! My 500th post! What a chatterbox - LOL

    The "factory fit" done in Southampton. The French don't do alarms apparently. I had
    a 2 day delay on my Coupé for alarm to be fitted

    Sig, that looks quite different to the after market kit that dealers offered. If the plip
    works easily, then it does have some value.

    How sure are you Sig that this alarm actually came out of the 5 shell that you bought? Maybe it's from a different Renault??

    I am not sure that's is why I was asking as I can not find any info or pictures online just wanted to see if anyone else had.
    Seems to me to be 90% most likely off a gt5 so thanks for the info people.I will try some how to test with fob/plip.
    If it holds any value might sell to put to the restore.
    Do not want to bin it if it might have value
    if any one else knows any more on it or might want it let me know.
    Thanks
