E36 Alarm fix, supposedly ready!!!
Hello Digesters,
All of you with factory alarm problems should call your servicing
dealer and tell them you believe the fix is ready. My dealer called
today and said the new and improved part (for my car) is in his hot
little hand. I update the list after it is installed next Saturday.
Also, I response to: "A. Kamyab" <kamyab@domain.elided>:

Not necessarily, any alarm with a multi-function remote can be made to
operate the double locks on the car. This alarm is JUST is OLD ALPINE
that has been configured to plug right in!!! The big disadvantage to a
pre-wired plug right in kinda thing, IS: Every car that has this
alarm will have the alarm brain installed in the exact same place in
the vehicle, using the same wires, in the same locations. Defeat one
and you've defeated them all!!!
