[QUOTE="Kickstand, post: 8740394, member: 681842"] The first car I ever put a system in was a 95 Honda Civic dragon edition They were great cars to work on but easy to steal. I disabled my Hazard lights and ran the wire for the ECU from the fuse box to the switch for the hazards So in order to get the car to start you had to turn on the hazard lights. Hood locks work but re running the hood release inside the frame or at least the engine bay helps too. It doesn't take much to reach up through the wheel well and pull the release cable If you put an alarm in do not have the valet switch put in It's much easier to pull the ignition and flick the switch than it is to try and rip the brain out Only way to stop a back up siren is to hit it with a hammer so mount it somewhere you can't get at it. The club....don't waste your money. 10-15 second minor inconvenience to cut the steering wheel. This sounds funny but it works Most thieves won't want to break the window. No one wants to drive around with a smashed window. The might pull the door lock out but its still noticeable Best way is to pry the window open a bit and reach in and unlock the door Those vent shades that you put around the window make it a pain the ass to do this. Your not going to stop them from getting into your car, just accept that. But you can stop them from taking the whole car. Its better that they just take the equipment and go. If you can hide your insurance paper work somewhere in the car. They will break a window at a mall and take them Now they know where you live and in about 6 weeks will come there and take the whole car [/QUOTE]
