Before my tc i had a honda and some of you might know a lil "feature" that they had which was when using the remote to lock the door after pressing it twice the horn would give you a reassuring honk to let you know that the doors locked as you walked away. i miss that feature cause the flashing lights just dont cut it for me when im in a rush and dont feel like physically paying attention to the lights. anyone know a mod to fix my issue besides getting a real alarm which i am considering

 

instead of a honk get the beep sound that the upper end lexus's make, i think the beep makes ur car sound more classy.

 

exactly i dont need a honk but some kind of noise, chirp or whatever

 

That feature comes with the Scion Security option.

 

I haven't tested everything out on my tC, but I did order the SS option. Maybe I'll play w/ it some this weekend.

 

yea i want it too but not enough to get the ss option..the honk feature was on my rsx and accord but now that i dont have them anymore i kinda miss it..now i just listen to the doors lock and then double lock it again to make sure on my tc

 

doest come with the security option...not that i kno of..my ssm tC doesn't make a sound besides the muffeled click of the door locks...however, if you c that theres a way to adjust it...pls let me know ?

good luck w/that

or you could setup your own relay w/a piezo horn/tweeter...

 

nope

 

just get an aftermarket alarm ....

 

I hate the horn sound, but a relay would work perfectly, connect it to your infrared if you can find it

 

moved...

 

get a simple $150 Directed Electronics (Viper/Rattler/Clifford/Valet/etc.) alarm. Good alarm, and it'll give you that chirp you want,

 

Did you read what this thread is about? It's about ways to mod the factory alarm to chirp. I think we all know other alarm systems have chirps.

 

he said "anyone know a mod to fix my issue besides getting a real alarm which i am considering"

so in other words .. he has no choice but to get an A.M alarm !!

 

What you said makes no sense. He said "beside getting a real alarm". It's clear he already knows he can get another alarm, however, I am sure as time goes by someone will figure out a mod to chirp the factory alarm. That is what he was asking for ... not alarm recomendations.

Anyway, I am sure the previous suggestion of hooking something to the car's lock transmitter/receiver would work OR something like t-tapping some kind of chirping horn to one of the power locks so when it gets a signal to lock/unlock the chirp also goes off.
