Someone Tried to steal my system last night...

There always are, Lemans. It's like those "hacker proof your PC" articles that come out biweekly on whatever electro mag you subscribe to. They all say run updates, stop using IE, and try the latest fad in personal firewalls with a page of filler. We have enough threads around here about our ingenuitive ways of theft proofing our vehicles, we just need to apply some of them.

and tonight they are def. getting in my car or near my trunk because my car is backed up to about 1-2 inches from the garage door and 4-5 from the other cars....

How are you going to get in?

Anyway, I found that if you take your ground wire off your amp and off you battery, you can connect it to power lines and the body of your car. I've done this several times with no major body damage or injury to myself. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Park inside, if you can, is all I (seriously) have to say.

Hmmm.... Attach a power line to the chassis of your car... I like it. You know, you could attach it to a breaker in your garage. Turn it on at night, when you wake up in the morning you just turn it off. That would be a very effective theft deterrent. Just need a way to easily attach it to the frame and make it impossible to cut the wire.

I had to move one of the other cars, and then crawl through my passenger door, yeah it kinda sucks when people know you are moving and they are all trying to get back at you for things years lost. Anyways
