How Do I Prevent People Stealing My Car Parts?

[syfon]

I've got a really good way of not having your car vandalised at night. Go live somewhere with secured parking or a garage. Problem solvered!

yeh my alarm is F*** loud but only activates on entry to the car,

in the process of finding a new place with a garage so hopefully my chain will hold them off untill i get a garage... its working so far!

kinda sad looking at my baby with a big chain and padlock wrapped around her every night though

hopefully not for much longer

Well they didn't jack it up so what in thinkin is puttin hex screws in, getting two perfect lengths of chain and padlocking then around the whole car just near the wheels and then putting a cover over it?

Yeh it's gunna be hell tedious getting in to my car every morning and lockin up with protecting the paintwork from the chain but hopefully they won't be able to get the skirts.. At least until I find a new place with a proper garage

Hex keys aren't exactly unknown though. Besides, hand me a flat head screwdriver that is the right size, and perhaps some sort of knockometer if its a tight fit, and I'll undo any torx or hex head screw. The bolts won't look pretty when I'm done, but they will be removed fairly easy and without damage to the panel so I doubt that will put off any thief with half a brain.

You could use one way screws, AKA bastard screws. They only go in one way and the driver will just cam out without applying any loosening force if you try to undo them. Its a huge f*** around to get them out though (as I have discovered at work a few times), so they really are a permanant solution

Yeh baught a few packs of one ways but just havnt had the time off work yet to actually do Anything about it,

So far so good with the chain on the plus side
