Well if your not bothered if whatever it is your towing falls off the back of your car potentiating killing the innocent victims driving behind you, there is a reason for approved installers you know. The way I see it if you want to save money save it on something less important like your burglar alarm or water supplier
I would agree with that to some degree, but this is a forum where people come for assistance and guidance, and if I was offer any guidance it would be to charge enough to make a worthwhile living and not just enough to cover the fuel cost
Id agree with that I used to be in a buying group so trade was even cheaper , but it still doesnt beat shopping around.
I now import, and build my own CCTV, and some access, Intruder I buy from SW, Fire Ebay, and I have given some thought about importing Telephone entry. (Ebay was a joke BTW)
The industry is changing, but I would say its actually going in a direction that it once was. Years ago it used to be only the bigger houses with plenty of contents worth stealing, soon followed by smaller and smaller properties. Now many of the smaller domestics are diying or using one of those app systems that dont really work(Sooner or later though someone will invent a reliable one that will work). I do not see this as a problem we dont get many small domestics anyway, we prefer the bigger jobs that are reliant on an approved security system for insurance purposes.
