Well IMO an aftermarket alarm is pointless unless it has an immobolisor so have you got anything against an aftermarket immoboliser?
What are these full metal jacket things people are talking about?
Hmmm, is there any point to swapping out the front door locks? I have an alarm system coming (imobolisor, alarm, remote central locking, boot release, etc) so I will have remote central locking and boot realease.
So would getting rid of front door locks and the boot lock help at all? It would help as a deterrent at least wouldn't it?
Can someone give me some pointers on the most/more vulnerable access point for the VN? That way I can at least attempt to harden it up a little...
no no...i havent anything against aftermarket immobilisers,it's just that they are easy to by pass.mongoose,i think i saw someone say they had one a few posts up,from memory they were contracted for GMH as well was cobra alarms,so that makes them after market i suppose
cobra have the lot now,movement sensors,height sensors(if some one is trying to shake your mags-it sense that the vehicle is being raised) i priced one about 6 months ago,as i thought my factory fitted cobra had seen it's last days,but it hadn't ...the full blown anti theft protection was around the $700.00 mark
no getting rid of door locks is no answer,as they don't break in that way
the most vulnerable places for entry into a VN is the 1/4 glass in the rear door,their preferences were drivers side rear,but they smash either side now.
these full metal jackets are only a deterrent,they still break them,if theres a need to,all they are worried about is being able to grab those ignition wires
