The real question is which car is wrapping up? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Battery disconnect is easy and also discourages the magic smoke, but theres got to be a cool setup with GPS etc.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) The answer to the real question is Porsche related...but NARP...(I have considered teeners to be real Porsches..so not a teener...) Will let you be the judge of whether it is worthy of an alarm...but will be a couple of months, at least. (the 6 is getting wet sanded, will get lids on etc, but won't see the road this year...just too many little details and an engine redo.. . Had forgotten about GPS...will look into that..my main goal is deterrence. Start with a Club, then a kill switch...and add an immobilizer, the latter is mainly for security, but also it gets a significant discount on insurance. Will keep checking things out...any suggestions re preferred product are appreciated. Thanks, all... |
