i own currently own a 2000 honda civic SI

my car got broken into a couple months back, now i need some help with security precautions i can take.

i had an autolock, and a kill switch before it got broken into, and a stock factory "alarm/keyless remote entry" they broke in, fucked up the weatherstrip, and luckily only took the SI cluster, radio and they gutted my trunk (idk why). so now iono what to do. like what alarm should i get? back up battery for that alarm? another kill switch? detachable steering wheel? reroute hood latch cable? vent visor for the driver side? i really dont want my baby to get broken into again, and stolen. i need help. help out a fellow SI owner please.


plans already:
-bought replacement cluster
-climate control bought already
-installed new cd deck
-i plan on buying the DEI 520t battery backup

help help help on what else i can do!!!

 

you can do a fuel cut-off switch...quick release steering wheel...clutch lock...wheel lock...i would also suggest taking your ecu out if its a big problem

 

If it's the stock alarm then definitely do the hood cable re-route, however if you've got the time you should do a stealth alarm. Also, if you have a kill switch or anything like that, wire it so it's activated when you set the alarm as someone may watch you for a while and always see you reaching for something before locking the car, then they may figure it as your switch location. Also, any other types of immobilizers are worth it.

Lastly, I don't know how realistic or effective this would really be (haven't researched it much), but one thing I'd like to do with my car (again, if possible) is to install a hidden GPS transmitter for when the car is stolen and carry a device with you that can display it's location.

 

removable quik release steering wheel, that stoped my **** from being jacked, they also sell a personal boot system there a group that talked about it on here, look under a 2000 si being stolen some one told him he should have got that, also **** you have a 2000 buy a boost mobile phone use its gps, its like a ghetto lowjack also a topic somewhere on here, and honestly put up a spot light were you park and get a camera, some of these my seem pricee, but hey you will pay more when your civic is gone

You answered your own question. As far as security ever will go, one layer is never the "best" or never "enough". The more the merrier. Install as much as that as you can, those will all help safe guard your car; there is not a magic anti-theft product that will work, but together, they can give you a higher chance of keeping your car/items.

 

there is one magic anti theft, a hand gun, they will run, and there will be blood, oh there will be blood, i had to say i always wanted to say that

Criminals never carry guns, right?

Seriously, the likelihood of them having a gun will often match or exceed the likelihood that you have a gun. I'd much rather carry a bat so if I catch someone in the act I can lose all self-control and beat them into a puddle of their own blood, and then drop the bat and fall to my knees whilst crying out all of my mixed emotions...Like in the movies!

 

i like that one, i only got the chance once to do that, caught two guys breaking into my fiances car when she was pregnant, had a silent alarm, inside house fire alarm outside quiet as hell, the guy on the passenger side was turning to come out with radio in hand my aluminum bat met with his face he had no time to block or move, he was out, he buddy made it two blocks before i caught him thru the bat at his legs and he came down like a ton of bricks, they never learn

 

lol. i looked up the guy who owns an Si with a K20 swap and he had a ravelco security system.

they claim that they have never had a car stolen, and its on the Los Angeles ABC news.
im thinking about saving up and getting one, along with the security **** i already got.
i'll probably keep the keyless remote and use the kill switch and autolock. should i go with the ravelco????

 

thats like asking should you use a rubber witha girl who looks ugly but has a badass body, hell ya, dont want ugly kids, so hell ya get that ****
