Re:anti theft ideas
get a sticker made that has a lightning bolt on the bottom and says lowjack. a small sticker and put it on the drivers' side window. a switch on the fuel pump is the easiest to do i think.

Re:anti theft ideas
you can break into a civic with a liscence plate, or you could even just use the window trim. your best bet is to have a alarm, a 2 way maybe. and then i guess if you want, a kill switch or two.
|
Re:anti theft ideas
the dead bolt on ht looked pretty good. but it's just a deterent.
there's the removable steering wheel. the battery key thing. the autolock for the brake pedal. pulling your external coil wire. removing the ecu. |
Re:anti theft ideas
could also do an inline fuse from the fuse box to the ecu. Pull the fuse and viola no power to the ecu= car ain't moving unless it's being towwed. Just hide the fuse good. Also try the removealbe steering wheel hub.
|
Re:anti theft ideas
Remove the ECU.. it takes about 5 seconds, and after you've done it like 500 times the plugs get nice and easy to take out. ;)
|
Re:anti theft ideas
Carry your spark plug wires around with you. Pull your ECU, pull fuses, have the standard auto lock + alarm + remove face plate of your stereo. Those are a few things you can do to make sure your car doesn't get taken. If someone wants it really bad though, they'll tow it off... =(

Re:anti theft ideas
i unclip the zif socket on mmy ecu, that way the car will start for about 5 seconds before it dies and wont start, sure they can steal the ecu but they'lll never get the car.
|
Re:anti theft ideas
im gonna make a panel with 5 switches on it and for the car to start they have to be in the right on/off positions, then im gonna label it "kill switch" ;) :P

Re:anti theft ideas
Ive got a fuel pump kill switch, on October 5th when they tried to steal my car, they got it started by it looks like jamming something into the ignition, I was in a parking lot and the car didnt get far.
Called the cops in the morning and my car was just parked down the street. I didnt even fix my ignition, I can still get the key in no problem (holes bigger lol) But they keyed it and ---- probably after it stalled so that sucked |
Re:anti theft ideas
the best alarm is the ignition interlock that i got when i had my DUI, you had to know the code and then be sober enough to blow into it for the car to even start ;D. but at $70 a month i would just get a 2 way compustar alarm. fuel pump switch is always a good idea also.
|
Re:anti theft ideas
that sucks they key'ed it, i wish i could catch someone stealing cars so i could hit em with my 10gauge 00buck.
|
Re:anti theft ideas
I can remove an ecu like no else best move in my opinion. I have some other tricks also

Re:anti theft ideas
another good way to prevent theft is move out of zillah ;). that place is the worst.

Re:anti theft ideas
I use a different style of anti-theft.
http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL564...8/44245323.jpg I don't live in a high crime area so I don't have to worry about theft. Most of the time when I go somewhere I leave the doors unlocked and alot of the times I leave the keys in the ignition. :-\ __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |

Re:anti theft ideas
couldn't they just pull the car onto a flat bed if they wanted the car?.. the thing i do is pull into and not back into a spot and yank my wheel all the way one way. and have it lock. so if they pull it. its going to hit the car next to me.

Re:anti theft ideas
If someone with a tow truck wants it, you are fucked period.
Impounds and repos are what I do. |
Re:anti theft ideas
i guess you could always chain it to the ground :)

Re:anti theft ideas
----, the steering lock can be taken out with a good blow to the ignition with a ball ping hammer. best protection in my opinion is park it in the garage + all the good ideas said before. to the repo guy, do those wheel locks work? the ones that lock right onto your wheel rim.

Re:anti theft ideas
what if you get some steel cable and bolt the wheels togeather so they cant turn and wheel lock the car. then get another cable and bolt it to the fram of the house/ ground. then put a steel cage around it. and take the ecu out with a kill switch.
think that be good? lol |
Re:anti theft ideas
you can cut through steel cable pretty easily!
