put a nice request in the vag-com section for help in doing this, or get vag-com yourself or even ask a garage local if they can do it.
please be mindful that the guide mentioned in another post does state this is illegal in the uk.

IIRC earlier cars didn't have a separate alarm siren, but sound the horn when the alarm is activated, so it's not software that's causing your problem, it's missing hardware.


Not quite right,

Mine used to beep the horn but now chirps :D All the Mk 1 pre face lifts have horns as alarms (sepersate from the main horn) which is what the car uses when the locking sound is activated, the face lift cars have sirens hence the chirp, i just changed my horn for a siren. simples :p
