jbondox Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 True, they are not going for the hardest, but... when you live 2 doors down from the guy with the alarm going off at 3AM on 1988 chevy beretta filled with boss audio... because a cat walked by, a rain drop fell, or the wind blew... or when they come on here and post saying that they have a current draw on their vehicle, because the 6 miles of spaghetti under the dash is wired wrong... you get the "been there read it before" mentality. Didn't mean to offend anyone, I apologize if I did. SMD SuperSeller VerifiedJbondoXJames Shields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c0smo kram3r Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Didn't see it... But keep your car from getting towed, just put it in 4wd or you're set if you have an AWD... They can ONLY be towed if you have a rollback tower or take the driveshaft off.. Of course this only works on 4WD/AWD vehicles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Ok, well after seeing Bumpin's theft I decided to share my ways of anti theft. No I'm not talking guns shooting the driver, or explosives or any of that stuff, but practical ways to slow a thief. 1. Fuel pump cut off switch. Can't go anywhere without fuel, so this trick works very effectively. All you do is cut the power wire to your pump, and route it through a switch. Simple. Hide the switch someone easily accessible from the drivers seat, but hidden from view. Possibly under the carpet in the trunk. 2. Starter disable relay. A lot of people know how to bypass the gm vats systems. Relatively simple to do. They have a relay which, if the wrong key is in the vehicle it cuts out the starter, and in some vehicles, the fuel injectors won't fire. Anyways, If you were to find the starter enable wire, deep past your steering column, you can prevent your car from being hot wired from the column, but not at the starter. 3. Multiple alarms. Most car thieves, if they want your shit bad enough, they will take it. You may not be able to stop them, but you sure can make it hard to steal. A lot of thieves, will break into the car, and go right for the antenna of the alarm, and the siren. A simple and effective trick to do is, place another back up antenna and siren, in a completely different and remote place in the car. Then when the thief breaks in and cuts the first set of wires, he'll still have the second one to find and disable. 4. Homemade gps tracker. A lot of people know this one.. its just taking a cheapo cell phone and mounting it in the vehicle. All you do is get a cell, and its car charger. you cut the chargers cigarette adapter off and hard wire in to the vehicle to be on and charging all the time. Turn phone on silent, and on to auto answer, and when vehicle is stolen you can contact police or cellphone company and have them track it. 5. Automatic Airbag. This is a tip not recommend.. but if you really wanna deter people from driving your vehicle this is a way. I know a guy, who took the hot wires to his airbag and wired it into a switch. If the switch isn't off when the vehicle is messed with, air bag goes off. This could be explained to insurance company, that he cut the wrong wires, but I wouldn't recommend it. That's all I can think of off the top of my heads, so post up your own ideas. I also understand not all of these ideas are practical or whatever, but the extra work is would pay off if it was ever needed. For the fuel pump idea.. how about mounting switches in remote areas.... where both have to be turned on... also.. I got one more. how about messing with the ignition system? i did this on my 92 accord. wired it up to prevent current to be delivered to the ignition module when switches where in certain positions.

bigaltexas Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 i like the airbag one lmao... and the cell phone tracker is smart... but. how do you exactly use a little switch for say like the fuel pump. is it just that one wire and when you flick it they will touch and flow to your fuel pump?

Wastehog Posted October 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 For the fuel pump idea, all you do is find the postive power wire to your fuel pump, cut it and splice in a switch that you can shut off. Another alternative would be that you could pull the fuel pump fuse/relay is the vehicle was in storage. Here's another idean make a remote module (car alarm panic button) set off your air bag. You get car jacked, let the guy drive a lil bit and BOOM concussion!! Lol. Just thought of that one. 1985 Chevy Silverado Black and Silver SBC 350/700r4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
