Ok I'm really excited that I found this website and hope that I can help out fellow TI members in giving them ways to better secure their car.

Basically it's a deadbolt for you car door. Simply yet effective. I plan on buying one in the summer.

that is a good idea-wish i had 200 dolaarz laying around --wonder what it takes to install it

what happens if you battery goes dead?

 

[SniperJoe]

I wouldn't rely just on this, though. You still have windows.

 

[FuManSpam]

interesting... i'm sure there's also someway for existing car alarm owners to implement this (?)

 

[dc2tegmyway]

that is pretty cool....might have to look into that

 

[VtecTeggie]

yea you still have windows but you still cant break in and open the door. and i dont know how many people would risk trying to slide in through the window of a car, to much of a risk that someone can see

 

[TheGSRGuy]

They can still break the window, reach inside, and grab whatever is in reach (CDs, stereo, radar detector, etc).

ya I was thinking about this and if I installed it I'd probably hide a set of contacts that I could arc off of a diff. battery...seems logical to me and it would be easy to hide and something most wouldn't know what to do with even if they found it.

I'm not trying to prevent the thief from stealing cds and a headunit, who cares. That's why I have insurance. I just want them to leave my car where they found it.

Simple solution to most. Hide radar detector behind clock or lock in glove compartment. Could also hardwire it like some members have done. Most cds are burned anyways. Take another 8 minutes and burn another one. Take face plate of headunit.

I mean what are you really asking for a little protection of your car.

Although true, that is still better than having your car jacked.

Great find, wish I had the extra money for it.

Well short of bullet-proof glass or something, anyone can do that...even if an alarm is going off.

I think it is a good idea...kind of unusal, a theif probably wouldn't know why the door wasn't opening, panic and move on.

Strange pics on car domain...you just drill a hole into your door and the deadbolt goes in there? I would have thought there would be a mounting of some kind?

Not mine...

The concept is great but what if your battery goes dead. Is there some sort of stand by power storage on it? Does the company give some sort of gaurantee on the lock? Can it be integrated to work another aftermarket alarm? I mean because before I spend $200 I would like to know all of these little things.

 

[adamones]

Actually dont you have to order TWO of these for both doors right? It doesnt look like they give you for both doors.

Also I cant find any installers! I typed in my Houston zip code and found NO oNE! What the hell, no installers in Houston?

about the dead battery thing

My wife has shaved handles on her truck and we ran a 4 guage wire from the battery to under the front bumper so that we could hook jumper cables to it. Really something to look into doing if you're gonna get something like this.
