What we do

Complete taxi equipment, from a bare new or used car to a ready-to-drive taxi – all in one go at our workshop.

Taximeter installation

We install the Alberen M12, a mirror taximeter with its display in the rear-view mirror, plus the alarm system, signal horn and all the wiring in the vehicle.

FMS radio unit installation

For the radio installation we fit the unit that connects your vehicle to the dispatch centre and wire it to the taximeter.

Roof lights made in-house

We print the mounts ourselves from ABS. They are fitted to the roof rack or held by a magnet – we never drill into the vehicle.

Lettering and service

Roof light lettering, transfer to the new car when you change vehicles, repairs and replacement of the LEDs in the roof light.

A taximeter built into the mirror

The Alberen M12 is a mirror taximeter. The display and controls are built into the rear-view mirror, so there is no extra device on the dashboard: your view stays clear and the interior stays tidy.

  • Display and buttons in the rear-view mirror
  • Not tied to a specific vehicle
  • We transfer it when you change vehicles
  • Two-year warranty

Our two packages

Both include everything that turns a vehicle into a taxi. The only difference is how the roof light is attached to the car. The exact price depends on the vehicle and the radio connection. You can pay by bank transfer or in cash.

Floating Package

For vehicles with a roof rack

The roof light sits raised on our self-made mount. It is secured with a key and easier to see from a distance. The mount comes in a short or long version, whichever you prefer on your vehicle.

  • Alberen M12 Spiegeltaxameter
  • In-house alarm system
  • Signal horn
  • Roof sign
  • Floating mount, short or long

From €1,300 including VAT

Magnet Package

For vehicles without a roof rack, and for tall vehicles

The roof light is attached magnetically. This is the right choice if there is no roof rack or the vehicle is tall anyway, such as a Mercedes Vito. A raised mount brings no advantage there.

  • Alberen M12 Spiegeltaxameter
  • In-house alarm system
  • Signal horn
  • Roof sign
  • Magnetic mount and roof light connector
  • Film or steel strip for aluminium or glass roofs

From €1,000 including VAT

Taxi roof lights: we build the mount ourselves

Not a bought-in part: we design and print the mount from ABS and adapt it to each roof rack.

The Alberen M12 is not tied to a specific vehicle: when you change vehicles, we remove it and install it in the new car. We give a two-year warranty on our taximeters.

About us

We have been installing taximeters professionally since 2023 as Alpen-Taxibedarf OG, in our workshop on Pragerstraße in Vienna-Floridsdorf.

We are a team of two, and every vehicle passes through our own hands. We design and print the roof light mounts ourselves and also make the alarm system. We buy in as little as possible.
