On thursday night some B std low life tried to steal my Skyline.
They never got it, but i now see some major flaws in its security.....they obviously know the car model well and knew how to disable the alarm easily
I have a Clifford 650 with total closure and bonnet / boot activators, wheel switches etc
This is what they did....most of us have the triggers for the bonnet on the rad support bar, they pushed some thing under the hood, by the headlight to locate this then wedged it down so it would not activate, then pushed the bottom leftside of the grill mess back ( TRASHING IT ) to locate the bonnet release cable, and pulled it hard to release the bonnet
Then bonnet up undone the siren mounting bolts, cut the wires to the siren etc and removed it ( not to be found ),
then went about trying to start the car,but the rest of the alarm system would not let this happen (GOOD JOB) but they did get a chance after that to go throught the car....but took nothing ?? whats that all about...there was my new intercooler and a jump pack and other goodies in the boot at the time
Obviously just wanted the car complete.
|They even went to the extent of covering the low level steet lights with buckets to reduce the light in the parking area
But i am definately gonna do something about protecting the bonnet pull or rerouting it away, from easy access
and moving the bonnet actuator switch to a place less easy to find.
Just thought that some of you will be in a similar possition...protected but still vunerable
