Protecting ur Ride!!

[m3kidds]

ok.. i know you guys have mad LOOT invested in ur rides.. how do you make sure no one "borrows" it? I had my trunk messed with and was just wondering how you guys secure everthing?

[crxlvr]

nothing you put or do to your car will make it safe from theft or vandalisim, but to slow the process get a good alarm like a Clifford with a pager system, and ignition kills to help keep your baby around.

Make a fuel cutoff switch. Its real easy to do and all you have to by is wire and a switch. If I could find the instructions, I'd post them but I cant right now

[m3kidds]

any tricks to secure the trunk? i wanna put a fat chain with a master lock as a secondary lock..hehe

[crxlvr]

well an easy way would be to disconnect the latch handle realease from inside the car, that way you could only open it with the key.

[m3kidds]

i thought about disconnecting the latch, but someone tried prying my trunk open leaving a nice dent in my bumper.. thats y i was thinking bout puttin a chain on the inside of the trunk with a big ass lock..or maybe take out the system all together..therefore leaving nothing for them to take!

I had the idea of drilling through your sub box on each end and running one of those security cables through it and then locking that to the car. That way they would need some pretty strong bolt cutters to get it out and if you want to you could take it out with the key.

If you do keep your system in there be smart about it. That means don't pull into places with it on full volume. That attracts attention and thieves remember that car.

use lag bolts to secure your box to the floor and disconnect your trunk release lever and your trunk key and add a trunk release solenoid with an alarm . that way the only way to open the trunk is with the alarm

[m3kidds]

thanks for the suggestions.. i might have to go with bolting the box to the floor of the trunk becuz i have that factory alarm system. that works with my keyless entry i don't know how i would wire the trunk popper to it.. but i'll see if i can..

yeh, now i turn my volume down when i'm about to reach my destination just to keep a low pro....

another thing is to think about where you are parking your car ... and DO NOT put those silly stickers on there, telling everybody what is inside.

[tsunamiHB]

get some good insurance and keep the reciepts and replace it when it gets stolen... the harder you make it the harder the thieves try (the more damage occours)... also check with your insurance company for an approved alarm system... some times there picky on that...but sometimes if you get an insurance approved alarm it actually lowers your insurance....

all i have to say is
