Re: 16V Just stolen

[Brian McGarvey <brianm@zbt62.eastnet.gatech.edu>]

The best "alarm" is to have a battery disconnect. when a thief gets in
your car and "nothing" is on he assumes.. crap dead battery. and moves on.
or at least a starter cutout relay. so that the starter cannot operate
without stuff. but this is also just a deterrent.

my father used to disconnect the battery on his 88 GMC s1500 with cool
wheels and tires tint.. etc. Thieves tried to steal it 3 times
unsucessfully. Had to replace the drivers side window several times, the
steering column several times, the finally got it on the 4th try. he left
the battery hooked up when he went on the road.
oh well.
he says he's seen it around a couple of times in ATL, but not it a
while.
