You can test to see if you have an alarm by opening the drivers door....pushing in the door switch near the hinges....so that the vehicle thinks the door is closed and then locking it with the remote.....or key if you have long arms or a friend.

 

Then when you let the button go the alarm should sound.

 

Also if you look at the control box under the passenger seat there should be 3 leads connected to it rather than just 1 or 2 ...( not 100% on this though).

i belive it should have as also my glx should have but as my old control box with three plugs got wrecked i could only get one with two so hence no alarm

was nt there also a switch on the bonnet?or is that just on the mk2?

unlock bonnet with the lever,lock car then lift the bonnet.

 

just for info,my old mk1 glx n reg didnt have a alarm fitted.

just had a good luck and NO alarm, only two plugs on the box and the plug under the bonnet is blanked off.

I thought the top of the range ghia x would atleast have an alarm? (my old 1992 escort lx even had an alarm).

Any advise on an after market one that can link into the cars system?

If you are doing it yourself then TOAD, if someone else is fitting it then CLIFFORD. Toad's generally arn't as fussy with their wiring as cliffords so can be easily plumbed in by most competant people. I've got a TOAD Ai606 on mine ;)
