Upgrading the "Alarm"?
I know without the FOB the car is going to be difficult, if not impossible, to steal short of flatbedding it away.
What about something more, like if someone goes to open the door..and it set off the alarm, or, a window is broken...or something else? Anyone thought about this? The 370z is a nice, hot looking car, and just screams "steal me" to those who have nothing better to do... |
if you got an auto, get the Viper shock alarm system...it also lets you know which part got hit on a LCD key chain....it takes a whole shift to install this....8 hours for me.
a by pass mod had to be done. |

to allow power to devices when the car is off, it wasn't as easy as splicing wires.......

Get Lojack if you want the car back. Thieves have found ways around nearly everything out there, and where I live your alarm could be going off for a solid 3 hours and nobody would pay it any mind. Lojack can be put in many different places in all kinds of vehicles, so there isn't one place where a thief can look to remove it. You don't put stickers on your car announcing you have it. Basically the thief finds out when he sees the flashing lights in your rearview mirror.

My lojack was a dealer installed option that was listed at $700.00, but they basically ended up giving it to me since I paid 200 over invoice. Dealers usually mark that stuff up big time anyway. I don't know what indipendent shops sell and install lojack. I would just check the Lojack website.

its about 600 bucks to get lo-jack installed. keep in mind that if you live in CA, AZ, or TX, that IF your car gets stolen and they cross the border, LO JACK will NOT be able to track it. once it crosses the border, consider it gone...something to keep in mind.
|
once it sails away, it's gone forever

@takimbe: You mean if they cross into Mexico right? that's kinda of useless, since it only takes maybe 8 hrs at most and that's a work day. My roomate just got his S2000 stolen near the house and I am probably one month or two from pulling the trigger. Definitely leaning towards getting LoJack. How concerned are y'all about rims being stolen? I don't live in a bad neighborhood but things ain't what they used to be it seems. Got my bicycle stolen from my carport too, cut cable and all.

Hey how about saving a bunch of money and install the Club! and make sure your insurance covers all your high dollar equipment.
