Tips to keep your car from being stolen. Post them!
 
These cars are being stolen day in day out.. it is pathetic

No Trolls please keep it to the point.

1. Alarm
2. "The Club"
3. Fuel Cutoff
4. No system (01GSR CD Player only, no speakers/subs)

What do you people use?

Common sense and paranoia by the pound.

Really though, I think all posts like these only give pointers to thieves on what to look for, kind of like a troubleshooting guide. "If you're unsuccessful stealing a car, check out these common theft prevention ideas and find ways to overcome them! Only $4.99!!" But that's just me. In the end they'll just bring a flatbed and be done with it. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emthdown.gif

unless you have a lot of them, your car can still get stolen

and another thing, all you punks out there that talk about how you got guns and shit to protect your car, you ain't shooting shit... i have had enough of listening to this, "I'll pop whoever comes near my car" bullshit because: 1) you probably won't be anywhere near your car when it is getting stolen, that's why it would be getting stolen and 2) you are an asshole if you would really go to jail for murder over your "Honda", the boys in jail will think you're real hard and you'll be someone's bitch in no time...don;t get me wrong, i love my Honda too but let's keep it real, you don't get any extra thug points for having a gun as theft detturant for your car

I always fart in my car just before i get out, then i quickly shut the door and seal in the goodness. Better than an alram IMO.
