yes but thats 2 min.more than if they did not have to deal with it.

hopefully that 2 extra minutes they took was enough time, that you noticed, a cop rolled by saw them..

figure, 1min, to break in a car and steal it, with out any antu theft,
2min.for 2autolock, maybe 1 min to disarm a alarm, another 1 min to brake the club. after a while, all those security system you installed, adds up in slowing them down, even if it only slowed them down by seconds, thats still seconds that can count. </TD></TR></TABLE>

garage it all i can say....

The only thing it'll do is slow down the process and stop rookie thieves.

Go to http://www.wherify.com and buy yourself a GPS. It's worth it! Real time tracking.

EXACTLY... any pro can steal any car with any kind of anti-theft device.

its the less knowledgable ones that you want to stop.

if a pro has is eyes on your R , the only thing that will stop him is a bullet.

&lt;---mike who has an auto-lock but still uses it to help layer the car with protection.

Even a garage isn't foolproof these days. We had Batoutahell's car stolen when someone BROKE INTO HIS HOUSE to get the keys, and I recently heard about someone else who had the drywall of their garage busted in so they could get to it. Thieves are ******* retarded, but I'm getting tired of all this **** just for a Honda. After the Civic, I'm definitely moving on to some other make.

why would you put it on the brake, then there is no point of even putting it on then, cuz a thief will just drive the car like you did obviously by mistake.
