lol... ********.

Take off the rear tires, turn the fronts towards the curb, and leave it in gear everytime you park.

 

don't do bling bling **** to the exterior that makes your car a target.

 

...and don't go bumping through your neighborhood (or any neighborhood for that matter) and advertise that you have something. The more your car sticks out, the more likely someone will want to bust in or take it.

On a board filled with thiefs it's not a good idea to explain all the ways to try and stop them. Use your head (and a spell check).

 

Last time I heard there was this thing called a "semi-automatic shotgun" which has reportedly worked wonders in some instances.

 

..... just don't leave it in the glove box with your face plate.

Here is How to Not Get Jacked, Taken From http://www.hondahookup.com

• ALWAYS use common sense. Don't 'bump' where you live, esp. if you live in an apartment
• If at all possible, avoid putting any stickers on your car (be it performance or audio) they just scream "steal me! steal me!"
• If you go to car shows/soundoffs, I suggest removing your license plate temporarily. This will at least make it hard for people to remember your car is packing what gear(s)
• Consider getting dark limo tint and car cover. Remember - out of sight, out of mind.
• when you go to a mall or a store, turn down your system at least 2 miles BEFORE you get there. When a thief hears you bumpin down the road, he will follow you till you park and jack your equipment when you leave. Anybody who's desperate for money will do ANYTHING to steal something.
• Please Please Please install an alarm. I know about 30 people who pack thousands of dollars worth of competition-grade Audio Equipments in their SPL vehicles and they don't even have a $100 car alarm How stupid can you be..
• 'modify' your car alarm.. It might be an overkill, but I'll install 10 additional siren around the car - two inside the hood, two underneath beside the cat, two in the trunk, and four in the cabin. Thieves don't have enough time to cut all those wires while they're blaring 130bD.
• I betcha right now I can guess where you all have your alarm brains.. they're under the dash. right? that thing can be disabled in less than 5 seconds! Don't be a fool, move that brain somewhere hidden. Mine has mixed wire colors and false wires all around, Not even a professional installer can unload it.
• modify your Kickpanels to hide the hood release latch under the dash. Mine is covering the whole thing so you will have to reach inside the kicks to pop the hood. One time I took it in for an oil change it took the guy about 10 minutes to figure out where the hood release is This is extremely important so that the thief can't disconnect your +12 source and disable your alarm.
• I can't emphasize enough how extremely important security screws are. These are oddly-shaped head screws that you can get from any hardware store. Nearly ALL thieves carry a flat screwdriver and/or phillips screwdriver all the time. A hex or square head screw will definately slow them down. If your amp is bolted to the amp rack like this, there's NO WAY they can take your equipment.. but make sure your amp rack is bolted as well.
• Ask your insurance provider if they can cover your equipment.
• Be careful on who you show your system to... remember that every person is a possible thief. Even people who post here.
• Don't leave anything "interesting" inside your car (cellphone, jewelry, heck even a quarter) this will only attract passerbys that can possibly lead to theft.
• make sure all your fuses are good and have the right rating. Moreover, make sure your equipments are FUSED. In worst case scenario, after an equipment is stolen, wirings short out literally putting the car on fire.

The next time you roll down the parking lot, remember to keep them bass down cause having a system is like having sex--- you'll never know when you're gonna get jacked


Additional Tip: For those of you with websites about your ride... BE CAREFUL! That website can easily turn into a 'shopping catalog' for a thief. Try not to list personal information on the site (ie what city you live in, what school you go to). If you have any pictures of your ride, always blot out the licence plate. Also, if you have your own domain name try to use a different mailing address then the one your car is located at (ie Use a PO Box). Remember that's public information and can easily be obtained by doing a "WhoIs" report (http://www.netsol.com/cgi-bin/whois/whois).

ALSO-- Manual fuel cut off switches.....hey they cost a freakin dollar. Invest in them.

 

Bigjon great post

 

can some reword this better for me!!And even if you could manage to break the pedal off youd have to sit with your *** facing either up or our of the car for a long period of time....not something smart to risk..

What He Said: And even if you could manage to break the pedal off youd have to sit with your *** facing either up or our of the car for a long period of time....not something smart to risk..

Wm5holla Translation: yo gotta sit your *** up in da air to get the lev erage to kik off da damn pedel.


Basicly what he is saying is for a thief to defeat the brake lock he would need to sit at a angle that would make him noticeable and more likely to get caught.

 

i was thinking the guys who put inur alarma system , would be the best people to steal ur car. they have access to ur key and ur secuity codes.. like when you go to pep boys to get an oil change or what ever. they ask you for ur name, address ,numba,etc.. they can make a copy of ur key and bag ur car ...... ps.. i tryin to unplug my ECU, but i needed a flashnite tho..
