Erm the alarm + central locking kit (generic) was something like 90 bucks from USA from ebay. Installed it all myself and made up the linkages etc. for the central locking so zero pounds for labour.
It's not a brand name system or anything but it definitely does the job, the shock-sensor can be set to really sensitive, hasn't failed me yet, and the central locking interface is a good one too.

There we go, that exact model!

And something like this (but obviously 2 door config) for central locking:

Got mine together from one seller so saved on postage.

Unfortunately they are illegal in this country, so be careful where you use one...

And don't leave it in gear either...!!!
