I know these panels are ancient now but I have just put an old galaxy 16 in my home, all wired up ok... however, i have two prox keypads to use on it and apparently, prox's can only be used on galaxy 18's or above with a certain software range too! I guess i shall have to hunt down a galaxy 18 or above PCB to replace the 16 i already have - i certainly don't have the money to buy a brand new galaxy system and also, i don't want to ged rid of the big metal housing my current pcb lies in - i guess a large chunk of the cost for new galaxy would be down to the metal housing anyhow! Any suggestions from anyone?

PCB will be the highest cost - check eBay if your funds are low.

you can use the metal housing but you will need an 18 pcb, a new transformer and a 1a or 3a psu board.

The 18 and the 16 are very very different.

Id suggest buying a 2-20 or looking for a whole 18 or 60

I was afraid of that! 2-20's look good though, perhaps i'll bring my security into the modern day! Thanks for responses so far everyone!

is the prox a big issue? the keypad side of the mk7prox should still work. letting you use the alarm with codes just now untill you get the cash together for a g2-20 or better.
