kofi 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Hi All I have a 330ci coupe e46 2001 NZ new and the siren for the alarm is faulty - it is not as loud as it should be. When I went for my most recent service the guys at BMW told me I need to install a new siren which will cost about $700 NZD. What I am wondering is there an aftermarket siren that I can install to replace the BMW one? The information is much appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What I am wondering is there an aftermarket siren that I can install to replace the BMW one? The information is much appreciated. Original only. The siren has electronics integrated inside it and is controlled by digital data signals. No aftermarket alarm will do the job The siren is in the rear right wheel well - remove wheel and well cladding (plastic trim) to access the siren. Consider getting one from the US: Part 65758383152 Price USD 177 = NZD 270 (giyes vou an idea of the local NZ dealer margin) They're small and easy to ship.
