i've been hearing stories how cars are very easily stolen.
they first pull the cable in the grill to pop the hook. then disconnect the battery. After that, they can by pass the start kill switch with a wire from the battery to the starter. or push start the car. You really can't do much once your battery is disconnect. anyways to up the security? |

I agree - its all just level's of security. If someone really wants it they'll tow it.
Personally I have the factory alarm which in Aus includes a microwave sensor and backup battery. Microwave sensor means if you stand next to the car for to long it will sound a warning and if anything is put in the car (ie person) alarm instantly goes off. The alarm is fairly loud - loud enough for me to hear when its parked at home. I also put in a secondary immobaliser which is seperate from the factory system. It works on RFID, I just carry the RFID card with me and it turns off when I get in the car - no switches or anything. Its wired into several very hard to get places, lets just say if you were going to drive my car away it would take you awhile. If you interested the RFID kit can be found here - Jaycar Electronics |
