A well hidden kill switch and an alarm should thwart most thieves.........as mentioned they are looking for quick and easy. If you can't park it in a garage then I might go so far as to weld up one of those tire shoes like they use for parking violators.

leave one of those plastic dog ####s on the drivers seat

I fitted a kill switch to a ladies car about a year ago and they have tried to steal the car 8 times already with no luck. The only thing is to hide the switch !!

put a pitbull in the cab

my old 720 had the electric fuel pump wired through a missile switch on the dash, even though i did it and knew about it, at least once a week Id start it and drive off to run out of fuel 100m down the road

I remember years ago a friend of mine had his HX Holden GTS stolen in Sydney and he thought he was doing good removing the rotor button didn't stop them though. My feeling is most of these simpletons like to hit and run so if you disconect the wire to the dissy and tuck it out of the way it may work. Save losing your rotor button after you take it out otherwise a kill switch is a simple thing to install good luck

an immobiliser would be a good start, maybe a pit bull in the car overnight, the rotor button is a good idea, (who carries one of them around while hunting for a car to steal) put a sticker on the steering wheel mentioning that you don't want to do another life sentence but if you have to you will. or sit in the dark with a baseball bat and see if they come back and if so hit them, it's a very good deterrent.


i was working on the verge of my old house under my old 180B and had some guys come past and yell some abuse so i stuck my head up they stopped and got out "young tough guys all 5 of them" i picked up my 4x4 temp wood crossmember put it over my shoulder as i stood up 6'5" and they all ran back in the car. big lumps of wood are good deterrents.....

but the steel loop in the floor is a good idea i'm going to have a couple of those in my shed for my motorbikes...

i have a 1200 that i got a pager alarm for.
when i put the alarm in i made it so the deterrent light lights up the hole cab so there is no mistaking that it is armed

With my 1600 i scored a fuel cut off valve, its a valve u put in the fuel line and u just make it accessable and u can shut off the fuel ( butterfly idea)... works easy

or do wat i did with my old 1200 ute, everytime i parked it i took the coil to dizzy lead out and either put it behind the fuel door ( 1200 ute) or i put it in the missus handbag (never happy with that but meh haha)

id also recomend putting in kill switches all over the car in various locations...

or get one of those valve cap things u put on ya tyre, so if it moves the valve opens and deflates the tyre, obviously use 4 of the bastards... they had that at work, worked awesome too

yer i think ill do multible things.
i cant belive they even broke through my thick chain that was around my steering wheel and steering colum.
they trashed my whole insides seat ripped out but the body is ok.

hows this the car broke down on them. lol it broke a clutch cable and the battery for some weird reason exploded? how lucky am i
