Hi folks, I live in the south east UK, where I am there are loads of 'chavs' that hang about in gangs. Although my GT is on the driveway, along side my (Civic and Almera), those as.h*ls just wont leave my Celi alone. I haven't got a garage, so it is exposed for all to see. One day they even wrote some wierd code on the condensation - you reckon its signlanguage to target the car?
I recently got this steering wheel lock http://www.argos.co.uk/wcsstore/argos/imag...65UC226504X.jpg so that: 1. it will slow down the thief 2. acts as a visual deterrant 3. it's in the way of the head unit (yes they even steal the unit without the facia control nowadays!!) 4. If they did manage to rip out the front console to get at the head unit, the large lock device gets in the way 5. the lock is so large it rests on the horn, and is easily activated What I don't understand is why they want to break into the car (they tried screwdrivers by the door edge next to the door glass - they broke part of the plastic edging ( Any other ideas for deterants welcome. Oh yeah, how is it best to secure a subwoofer in the boot? Chain and bolts? -------------------- ![]() san0.:GT-SS2:. |
