I can't say with certainty, but I did look at Tisher, and the kit looks different than the one I installed on the ///M. Price is also much higher, about 130 for the parts. You could install them, but you're going to need to have it coded for it to actually work. 290 for parts, labor, and coding isn't that bad given the price rrom Tisher. But many of us got in on the ///M alarm for 40 bucks, which was just a steal.

Why not buy this for 40 bucks, get the "locked" confirmation chirp, blinking clown nose, and etc.? I was going to have the car was coded for DRL, locks, pathway illumination anyway, so coding the alarm is basically "free". Why not for the price?
