Called a few local companies about the Toad as that was what i had decided to get because of things ive heard about them on here.
But the companies ive called have said the toad is crap and only one of them do it and qouted £300.
They also said clifford arnt alot of good either.
So i called GAP and they dont do the toad but quoted me £525  So he eventually said £425 by direct debit.
Should i do that and get the clifford as ill know a quality company are fitting it, not a local place, and ill try get them down to £375 tomorrow as they wouldnt take £350!
So what i wana know is, which one you got, who fitted it, how much and are they nationwide??
Want to order one tomorra!!
Cheers

ive got an ai606 at the mo and had no problems at all...i think a lot of problems with alarms are caused by poor fitting!!

i just had a toad ai606 fitted...got it done for £250 
i considdered this one and the clifford 300...both very similar, went for the toad as it was slightly cheaper and my bros got one and had no probs.
my m8 just got a clifford 300 fitted (for £300) fitted to his nova, and we compared how loud our alarms were, and my toad was slightly louder 
id get the cheapest u can find, which is prob gonna be the toad

I had a toad Ai606, and I never had any problems with it. I paid £260 all in. Most of my mates have toads, and I don't know anyone who has had a problem with one.

had clifford fitted yesterday by sextons in southampton - was really impressed with it and the service I got - theyve done a good job and good after fitting service and it does so damned much - can pop doors and boot now - without all the hassle
