so as it says i got my new python security system put into the car after all my **** got stolen out of it a few weeks ago...which was a little late on my part...i know. but it's there now and so far none of my friends have been able to break in without it paging me or with out me hearing it, which is reassuring. anyone else have this system? do you like it or no?

 

Good job. Now add a battery backup, interior sirens and some kill switches and you'll be all set.

 

i got the back up battery and the kill switch for the fuel pump power and starter kill too...and interior alarms? i don't really think that's too ness. cause you can't not hear that outside alarm...

They're not meant to be heard outside... They're meant to cause discomfort for those inside the vehicle attempting to steal your ****...

 

true dat, my **** hurts the hell out of your ear drum

 

I have two DEI piezo sirens mounted in the center vents above the radio...

 

I went one pizo and one mini siren,
5 sec gives you a migrain, how did you get two in the dash, I not going to ask for pics,lol

 

hm ok well i get that now...i might have to think about doing that...

 

In the center dash of my '98 Civic, there are two air vents right above the radio... Behind the vents if you pull the whole bezel, there are two ducts... I drilled a small hole in each one for the wire, and jbwelded the siren in place in the duct, about an inch back... When I put the bezel back on, you can't even see them in there...

I wouldnt brag about that.
Ur friends are proly just going about it the wrong way.

You should try to steal it urself not ur friends.

Only you know ur cars weaknesses.
I would be more reassured if I couldnt steal my own car

 

Ha. I couldn't steal my car even IF I wanted to

I only have one interior siren in the car, but it's mounted right next to the alarm brain so it should be fairly annoying.

Only problem with the piezo's is that if your battery lead is disconnected, only your battery back-up will still be sounding, thus leaving your stuff fairly easy to grab. Hence why I've been toying with the idea of have an interior battery backup siren

yea i know i was doin it with them....it's not like i'm showing them how to do it...that would just be retarded.

 

Take a pocket knife, cut the fender liner. Pop the hood release cable (details omitted (doesn't trip the shock sensor)). Disconnect the battery neg. Slim jim the door. Break the steering lock (can be done by hand). Roll the car down the street and push it into a dark spot. The alarm is of little concern. It's always connected to the ignition harness. Even if the brain is tucked way up into buddhas *******, the wiring feeds the brain. Just pull the fuse. Reconnect the battery neg. If it's a stick, you might as well just push start it. If you can't get it up to speed, crack the plastic steering column cover. All Honda's use the same ignition wire colors so have at it.

Alternative method of entry: smash the window quietly (no details) w/out tripping the shock sensor. Climb in the window carefully.

There's some even better tricks but it's not necessary for me to go into detail for you to get the point. A standard install is better than nothing, but it's not good enough. It will stop only the most amateur of thieves, and maybe dissuade the lazy professionals. I ommitted details more to avoid the controversy than from any fear that I might accidently teach someone something they don't already know about stealing cars.

BTW, if some people are alarmed that I'm posting this, you're just being naive. Every ******* crackhead knows this. Every little bastard thieving ******* knows this or will know it as soon as they go steal a car for the first time w/ their friends. I was the last to learn this. I learned a lot of crap from a little ****** who could barely drive. It was necessary for me to learn how to steal a car in order for me to learn how to protect cars from being stolen. NOW YOU KNOW. Do something about it. Go read Cause For Alarm.

Probably get banned or deleted by some idiot mod.

Python is the same as Viper. Good quality reliable hardware. It all depends on the install, which is most commonly done badly.

All the more reason to ride slammed

 

S.H. If you are banned for keeping it real and trying to tell theses noobs how it is. I really don't know what to say, Better to get the info out there to let people know how it is, Most people out here all ready know how it is, do you know how many theives prob this board. It does not take a rocket sientist to steal a teg. Its basic common sence, People wake up and do something about it.

Hence why I drive a del sol

 

that's also why the alarm will run by it self for a long while, and also go off when you disconnect that bat neg. and the hood release is wired in too. plus that whole breaking the window thing will set off the alarm in full...just bumping the car or steping within about a foot or 6" and it'll start chirpin at ya. there is also a fuel cut off switch, ignition cut off switch, trunk sensor, and it is all about 10 feet from my open bedroom window where my S&W .45 will be in your face in about 10 seconds when you try somethin....have a nice day

1. Most alarms will reset themselves within 60 or 90 seconds.
2. How the hell will your alarm go off when your battery is disconnected?
3. There are ways to break a window without setting off the impact sensor or a glass breakage sensor.
4. Motion sensors usually don't have the greatest of coverage in the rear of the car.
5. You can only get so creative with placement of kill switches.

Bottom line - if someone wants your car bad enough, they can steal it. Never think you're too secure or you're just asking for trouble

 

Well, to add to the disappointment of a-hole theives... My best bud HAD a 93 Hatch w/ a viper alarm.... all kinds of sirens in all locations but in the exhaust.... and they got him this morning... The car was parked less than TEN FEET from the front door.... And anything set this alarm off. ******* SAD!!! There was a call to 911 for a fire... sure enuff, they called him to ID the car... and there it was.... completely stripped in a few hours. GUTTED... Anyone want some toasted 2000 SI rims in charcoal grey!!! JOEY, WE'LL GET THEM&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; TRUST ME!

RIP Joey's 93 Civic Hatch....

 

Thinking you'll catch em seems a bit nieve if you ask me. I hope he had insurance

 

Unfortunately... Liability doesn't cover theft or in his case FIRE. I'm sure it's not going to be easy to locate the ****** who pulled this one off.... We even thought that they'd have someone w/ a tow truck try and pull it away... No Glass broken, nada!
Only clue we have in finding them is we know the area and all those who have some interest in "HONDA" specifically. If someone pop's out w/ the few items once on his ride... That person/s will be followed. Even if it's to ask questions... My g/f's uncle is a cop... and a phone call away. We'll get the authorities involved to search garages... We might get lucky, we might not... but too may ******** get away w/ this... This might be their time to be unlucky for messing w/ the wrong people!

heyyyy i got the python 700 last week. so far i love it, got a couple extra sensors, piezo siren, and the door lock actuators. so far i love it, range isnt as great as i thought it would be though its decent though. i just needa do a few more things and my alarm setup will be complete, ha

 

If you turned up the sensitivity thinking it helps, you're making a mistake. It will false alarm so often, that you and everyone else nearby will grow complacent. Ditch the shock sensor altogether.

There are ways of breaking the window doesn't set off the shock sensor. You can do it w/out leaving any glass too.

It doesn't take a tow truck to steal a car with an alarm w/out leaving glass on the ground.

Motion sensors are great, as long as they're the Crime Guard AU94T motion sensor. If it's the DEI sensor, it's garbage.

If you advertise that you have guns in the house, you INCREASE the chances that you will be robbed, because there's nothing better to steal from a house than a gun. All the guns that thieves have were once legal guns bought by law abiding citizens. Also, statistics show that you're much more likely of shooting a loved one by accident than successfully defending yourself with a gun, particularly a handgun. If you're really stuck on having a gun, the best/safest/most effective gun to have for home protection is a sawed off shot gun. A wide spray so you wont miss, it wont go through walls, and you will stun but not kill your assailant, so you wont go to jail.

I think you're doing a good job so far of protecting your car. Most people don't do **** except cry after their **** gets jacked.
