BogMonster Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 You can fit the "spider bypass" referred to in my Tech Archive thread which is just a plug with the pins hard-wired across to make a permanent connection, so you can fit that and file the spider in the cylindrical storage facility in the corner. I don't know the specifics of the Toad but as you would effectively have a non-immobiliser vehicle, you could then fit that however it is designed to be fitted. You won't be getting rid of the actual alarm though, as that is a separate unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for delay in replying, been busy in garage cutting sills out ready to replace, so the spider isnt part of the alarm so where is the alarm hiding or can't you tell me in case the wrong people get the info as well, perhaps a private email will help, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 IIRC the alarm ECU is in the passenger footwell though it is a long time since I last looked for one You are looking for a little plastic box, green in colour IIRC, with "Lucas 10AS" on it. It's shown in the workshop manual so no great secret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
