use a car cover.
Honestly, will just attract more attention to the car. It'll make it harder to get off without setting off the alarm but honestly doesn't make it much harder.Quote:

If I was going to be stealing stuff out of people's cars, I would go right past a car with a cover. I guess it really all depends though. It's not like you get to meet the thief.

That might be a good idea to help prevent it.. But wouldnt it make everything easier if they have already broken into the car?? Nobody would be able to tell or see anything, so wouldnt you be in the clear?Quote:

In all honesty there really is no %100 way to prevent a break in. If they want it then they'll get it! But there is some good advice given. Only thing I have a problem with is the car cover. Theives will see that and think the car must be very valuble and make it more of a target.
I'd just keep anything worth stealing out of the car. Sounds like they are stealing stuff out of cars, not the cars themselves. Just make sure there's nothing worth taking in there and I think you're good. I doubt they'll risk getting caught breaking into a car that's not going to net them some $$$.
If they really want in you're car, they'll get in it. Really, there's no avioding that. Its only so hard to break a window. Besides that, F-bodies are fairly easy to break into. The windows have so much room to be pulled out, you can easily get a hanger in there and press the unlock button. I have a buddy that only had one set of keys to his car and had it down to an art.
i keep mine in the garage. thats how i prevent break ins... then again we live in a pretty decent gated subdivision
hell the wagon has a GPS unit sitting on the windshield of it and the doors aren't even locked.
