[QUOTE="wags, post: 357142, member: 548116"] Oh here's another thing most people don't think about. If you have a trunk release in the cab of your car, most thieves will just have to bust your window and pop the trunk in order to steal your shit. Most amateurs will have a hard time opening the trunk otherwise. So if you have a trunk release, disable it (most cars have a switch for this - mine's in the trunk) and if your seats fold down, make sure they're always locked. Also, I've read of people mounting their box to the car on the inside of the box for extra difficulty. If you did that and mounted your sub with rare screws you'd be much better off (If i were going to steal a sub I wouldn't take the box I'd just show up with a cordless drill). That way they can't get the sub out nor the box. Basic rule of thumb is, if you were a thief and you were going to take it, what would you do? Then prevent it. You of all people should know all the security weaknesses of your own system. [/QUOTE]
