Iv had my car for a while now and it had this clifford alarm system thing an I don't really know how it works or if it works at all. And I don't know what that switch is next to it and that random little square button either..any help?

first switch next to the alarm warning light could be anything from aftermarket lights to a kill switch of some type. its just a generic aftermarket switch.
The little button in the second picture deactivates the rear window switches. if you have children in the back. (or retarded friends who like to throw shit out of your E30 and you need to cut the windows to stop them) -
Is there a way to Figure out if the alarm system works?and same with the aftermarket switch besides trial and error?Comment

Pretty much only way to find out is either trial and error, or taking apart the console/dash.

My car has that stuff too. No idea what that first switch does though.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.Comment

Dude, how would any of us know what the first switch does? It was added on by a PO, not bmw. Is your car eqipped with a fog light switch next to your headlight knob? Best advice I can give you is pop out the coverplate, and trace the leads.Yours truly,

Clifford! Nice vintage alarm there. That switch is obviously an add on. Pull it out and see where the wires go. Could be anything from auxiliary lighting to power antenna control.
Do you have the remotes for the alarm?"I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

Yeahhh in that case, there's no use worrying about it then. I don't know if getting replacement remotes will be worth it. Not with how cheap alarms have gotten.Originally posted by miichaelsmith View Post"I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj
