Frequently Asked Questions
Are Ghost 2 immobilisers any good?
Ghost 2 is TASSA verified and gives the car a separate authorisation step that a stolen or cloned key cannot provide by itself. It's a useful security measure, although no immobiliser guarantees that a vehicle cannot be stolen. Check with your insurer if fitting a particular security product is a condition of cover.
How much does an Autowatch Ghost 2 cost?
Our Autowatch Ghost installation listing currently shows £499. Give us a call to confirm which Ghost version is available for your car and get a fitted quote before booking.
Can a Ghost 2 immobiliser be bypassed?
No car security system is impossible to defeat. Ghost 2 is designed to resist common electronic theft methods by requiring a separate, hidden disarm sequence before the car can be driven. It doesn't prevent a vehicle from being physically lifted or towed away.
Is the Ghost 2 immobiliser available in the UK?
Yes. Autowatch lists Ghost 2 in the UK, but says it is being phased out in favour of Ghost 3. Ask us which version is currently available and compatible with your car.
Do I still need my car's original key or fob?
Yes. Ghost works alongside the car's existing key or fob; it doesn't replace it. Keep using the key as usual and follow the fitted system's instructions to authorise driving.
