where do u live? If LoJack is available to u I wud highly recommend it. It works off a radio signal vs. a satellite. if not I use to have Ravelco
http://www.ravelco.com and it works great too. its a REAL kill switch that ur not gettn around.
Remember professional car thieves are usually good with electronics so some kill switches can be bypassed if they know what their lookn for. we have more car thefts in the city I work in then anywhere around and the only vehicles we recover quickly before being stripped are either the LoJack vehicles OR the ones using the GPS car or bike locators. their are hundreds of those to chose from but u usually pay a months or yearly fee. worth it tho IMO
the downside imo to LoJack over GPS is its only activated wen the police enter ur Vin# into NCIC to activate it which requires them to send a cop out so u can sign ur name indicating ur being truthful so there is no priority there cause its a property crime so it cud be hours before ur car is entered into NCIC.
THEN the signal is broadcasted. but with GPS its on ur phone and unless it went into a metal container or large enclosed building or parking garage you shud be able to find it and track it pretty quick. so imo both LoJack and GPS along with a high speed kill switch will make u sleep better at night.... and the wheel locks while in ur garage. their cheap!
I know not practical for wen u take it out of the garage but them wheel locks work. I see this Honda civic every day with one boot on the front and one in the rear and its adjacent to a big intersection in an area known for car thefts and its still there. been over a year now and this is parked right on the side of the street.
but there are those setups that require multiple steps to start and those seem to be pretty useful as well. and furthermore, MOST car thefts are done via ignition and drive off. its very RARE that a tow truck will hook up ur vehicle but it sure can happen no doubt but its higher unusual.
this all may sound like overkill but I guarantee you u wud not be saying that if u came outside one day and ur GN was GONE! that sinking feeling in ur gut and feeling of being violated by some scumbag POS who deserves a K9 bite jus took ur pride and joy away.
and without the locating devices ur shit is GONE trust me. gone like the wind so if u guys really love ur GN's as I'm sure u do then take further steps to protect it cause u aint gettn a second chance to do it over.
