The club is nothing special, it can be broken. Being a installer at a stereo shop I can steal almost any import and most average american cars and trucks. Steering lock is the least of my worrys not like our truck have them but we can make something similar. The only thing you can't steal is a BMW and mercedes, good luck fooling a lazer cut key or taking one of them apart in time. Even if you tow these cars they have tracking devices that can rivial most military tracking devices.

Low jack is good but it doesn't take long to take a car apart, the idea is the make sure they can't get to it or have a understanding of where you tracking device sits. Making a plate for under your dash will comsume to much time for a thief especially if you got an alarm going off.

The cost of an alarm is the price you pay for quality. Hood pins and a hood lock are also a great asset. When it comes to secruity you got to use your imagination. Also there are alot of add-ons to alarms that arn't normaly talked about and sold with the average alarm. Stick to DEI stuff but there are higher end model but cost increases quite a bit. Find a good shop and ask about the add-on to an alarm.

Remember relays are your friend. You can set one output on alarm to conrtrolle a couple of relays that can shut off anything in your car at the same time or activate something like a lock. Proxy sensor are great since we have convertables, this is different from a shock sensor. a proxy enosr set a field out so any movmement whitin it field can set the alarm off or warning shirp incase of leaf or bird decide to rest on your blazer.
