I'm installing my first system. I don't have tinted windows, I don't have an alarm. My car isn't extremely "showy", but I do like to play my music loud... and that will catch people's attention.
So, instead of spending big money on an alarm, I was thinking of rigging up a lock system for my sub, amp and deck, using traditional locks with chains. Now, it may look horrible, but it just might work.
This is my idea: for the sub box, I will attack two hooks in it along the top somewhere. I will run a chain from each hook to the roof of the trunk, leaving enough slack so that when the trunk opens it won't pull on the box.
As far as the deck and amp, I don't know what I'm going to do. Any ideas? Anybody else done this? It's a lot cheaper, and may work...
