Remove door lock rods, put rear door handles on front, add jimmi jammers. Have fun getting in other than window. Just hope the keyless doesn't fail.

On a side note, something funny (I think). My Keyless entry doesn't respond when temps go below 0F for me. I have to click the stupid button a million times.

no one mentioned lo-jack either...

I came across a guy last month at a friday night car show with a setup that included a gps locator for his cell phone. When his alarm trips, a signal is sent to his cell phone ( in this case his iPhone ) which also opens a map for the location of the vehicle. He also installed a wireless door activated camera that snaps a series of pics when the door is opened, and uploads them to his iphone photo stream... Have been meaning to call him, and will this week now..

LED blinking light min.
Lo-jack decal... both sides.
I think the same, door poppers if possible, or rear replacement
Interior Sirens are a must, expecially the super high pitched warble type.
I have train horns attached to my alarm, but one the tank dies, they also die without a key in the ignition. I guess I could change that which would also kill the battery and slow em down.
