Hey Bob, take it easy, man! We're not gonna shoot anybody :D haha well, i know that people are interested in the car.. The car cover might be a great idea.. but its a pain in the ass to get it off the car every morning or so and then put it back in at night... but ringing the door bell at 11pm is really weird :-D as i said.. the best solution would be to connect the alarm with the door locks, but if the other guy didnt want to do it, thats fine too, but it might be a little more complicated to achieve the same result.. there are a few real good alarms out there tho.. whats about PJ Greddy's auto door opener? get that and the alarm and wire it all up so the alarm, locks and door opener work with remote and stuff ;) Florian ----- Original Message ----- From: "Video Bob" <videobob@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, March 13, 2004 11:55 PM Subject: RE: [DML] Car Alarm Question > One of the best things to add is a car cover. > Wal-Mart has a good one that is water proof for about $50 or so. > I use it. > If people don't see it they will usually leave it alone. > > If you do get an alarm, get the good one that has an interactive remote. > > It is unlikely that someone will break into and actually get in because of > the > complicated door mechanism, but you may get vandalized. > That is the biggest problem. > Since a perp can't just key it, they will try to break off a mirror, a light > or flat the tire. > I once heard of someone running over the top of the car smashing the > louvers. > > I recommend the car cover because, I park my car outside and all the time > there is > some wanker coming into my yard and taking pictures of it. > The other night at 11PM some a-hole was ringing the doorbell while my wife > was > here alone, she didn't answer the door. > I have a security camera on the car at all times and she watched this dumb-f > stand around > and take video of the car for about 10 minutes. > If I had been here I would have flipped. > I told her next time to let "Mojo" (our 125 Rotti) out on the front lawn and > fires off a couple > of rounds from my Desert Eagle. > If he wants to see a DeLorean he can go rent BTTF. > These idiots have ZERO respect for us and our cars, they touch them and get > their > greasy finger prints all over them, and I can promise if they think no one > is watching they > will try to take a souvenir with them. > > Get a car cover! > > - Videobob > VIN#5278 [very long quote trimmed by moderator] To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
