Right.

You’ll need one to sound the alarm when the door opens.

It’s a do it yourself deal.

It’s easy to make your car theft proof *.

The typical car thief is nothing but a loser.

Remedies are too numerous to list, but here are some.

You can Install:

A fogger.

A stereo with a removable coded faceplate.

Sheet metal in the door making it impossible to use a slim-jim.

(I know some of you don’t want that in case you lock you keys in.)

A glass break alarm/ignition disabler.

A keypad lockout of the ignition.

Hidden switches.

Switches which have to be touched in a certain order so even if they’re not hidden.

A timer that makes the loser think he is getting away by starting the car but it stalls after several seconds and only you know the secret to defeat it.

Tilt switches to provide towing alerts and tracking.

* No one from the Impossible Missions Force is going to try to steal anyones’ car.

It’s all about keeping the garbage away from your car when you’re at a shopping center, etcetera.



Happy Racing!
