be careful, they will most likely be back and this time they will probably succeed in takeing your car from you. park in a garage if you can. goodluck

http://www.autolock.com

Can be bought in stores also if you need in quicker. Won't make your car theft proof but it's a added layer of sercurity. Also they offer up to $5000 toward you deductible if you car is stolen within one year of purchase of the autolock.

Make sure you buy the "autolock pro" not the regular version if you plan on getting it.

don't tell people you don't trust anything.... otherwise its bound to happen again... get some kill switches and an autolock and an alarm if you don't have one already...

i dont think pulling fuses is effective because its quite obvious... he lives in an apt complex or condo (looks like it from the picture).... so it very well could be one of his neighbors..

popping the hood to pull a fuse each time he parks.. or getting under to the fuse box area is way too obvious.. they'll just catch on and bring their own fuses... get a hidden kill switch and put it in a secure place.. but not somewhere out of reach where someone watching you from the outside can see that EVERYTIME you leave your car.. your reaching in some area (where the switch is)...

i dont know where my friend with his 300zx got his security system but here is what you have to do to start it, you need a keycard to plug in before you can start the car, but that isnt all, once the keycard is in you have to turn on the corner lights, to get it to start. its pretty sweet

those come on some cars stock.. the dealer has them installed (before the car is even sold) and charges/adds on to the cost of the car...

when I was checking out cars some of the cars at either North Hollywood or Santa Monica dealers had this installed... the version installs on the cars I looked at was a chip w/ a protrusion that looked like a headphone jack.. the car wouldn't start w/o inserting the chip/headphone jack looking electronic key...

there were other types which were like a hard card (like a small version of an expansion card on a computer... basically a hard silicon card/chip key that you had to insert...

then theres the type that looked kinda like a flat card/credit card....

i got my car broken into awhile ago. They tried to jack my whole car. Luckly I had the autoloc on and they got pissed so they tore my center console apart and jacked my Clarion CD player. Oh well. Now I put my autoloc on, lock the steering wheel, park in my driveway and put another car behind it. Now they cant do jack. Gay *** theives. I hope every theif will get what they deserve!! One day there gonna fuc* with the wrong person and get the **** beatten out of them or even get killed. You should be careful and not say anything to anyone and get yourself an autoloc and alarm.
