Anyone Got Any Further Info?

Ok so I totally know nothing about what im about to ask, and that is why I would like to know everyones oppinion.

My Dad works at repco and some customer and him were talking about my car (Dads proud of his little girls car lol) and dad brought up about the increasing number of thefts of skylines latley. This customer told him that under the bonnet of the car is a green fuse that controls the power to everything and on removal of this the car has no power source to start and thats what they do to keep there car safe!!

So whats the go with this? is it good bad or stupid, does it stuff anything up or dissable things?

Most likely true but.. Go for a 3 point alarm immobiliser at the minimum these days. Sadly these shifty characters don't need to start your car to take it, just a tow truck, or tilt tray truck. They smash the steering wheel lock(ignition barrel) and steer the car onto the tilt tray. Bye car.

Full insurance, immobiliser, and watch where you park!

You can disconnect a whole bunch of stuff to stop it from starting but it's true what Sean said; they don't even need to start the car to steal it.

i take the that fuse out when i got shops i have full alarm system but can never be too safe and yes cuts any power to ignition and leaves alarm fully armed!

I take the fuse out for the fuel pump. Works a treat, and makes a noise that I can recognise so i can run out while they are still attempting to steal the car.

Interested to know where this fuse is, pics? so the alarm/immob still works yeah?

any of the fuel pump, ignition, or engine fuses from the fuse box in the engine bay will disable a car nicely. Except for towing, as discussed.

Ok so its a good idea then?

I doubt someone will load my car on a truck while in a busy shopping centre and at night its asleep in a locked up garage.

If the alarm is still active its even better, Could someone discribe to me where this is and how to do it and all that stuff for myself and others??

Thanks guys. Jasmin.

well think about it jasmine... who would expect it?

park your car on the street near rundle mall, some big truck comes along and starts loading your car up, some guy says "Hey what you doing?" and they just say, "towing, its parked illegally." no one would care...

get an alarm..
