- dheera 5y agoNot a direct answer but something that might mitigate. I have these motion-activated alarms on my bike, moped, and in my backpack, and activate the alarms when I'm not within view of them. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0734QN8KR/ https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0734QN8KR/ I imagine you could probably ziptie one (or maybe a few, though you'd have to carry a few remotes) onto an inconspicuous location on the car. It would be a good deterrent for car thieves and possibly also towing companies. I actually want to work on a modification of this device where it shoots out fart spray in addition to the loud alarm.
- jmrm 5y agoI know people who use hidden or magnetic switches to being able to start the car because they have a relatively expensive and easy to stole car.
- walrus01 5y agopeople also do this on a DIY approach with old cars that are easy to steal (like a 2002 subaru or something) by wiring an ignition kill switch into the ignition fuse, and hiding it somewhere not obvious...
- willcipriano 5y agoAdam Carolla famously did with but with the fuel pump, the thieves would get a few feet up the road before the fuel in the line would run out.
- m463 5y agoThe trick would be to make sure the fuel pump doesn't lose power in a critical situation.
- Handytinge 5y agoIf you have an expensive car that is easy to steal, wouldn't you deem that faulty and get a refund?
- jeffbee 5y agoThere are fuses for each door lock actuator. You can open the car with the physical key inside the key fob in this case. You always need the keyfob to start the car because the immobilizer requires its presence.
