There is no alarm. That flashing light is only for the key chip that stops they from taking the truck. As far a prying up the key pad and handle. They are not getting in by the key pad. What they are doing is using the hole it leaves to get to the inside of the door to unlock it. I would love to offer a .357 but you might hit the truck. 1. I wouldn't leave the truck there again. 2. never leave things out that are wanted items, ie: CDs, Money, and keys. 3. I would look for a alarm that will page you, the ones that make noise just makes them work faster and **** people off. 4 The last thing I would do is put a cattle prog inside the door for the next time. HE/She has found an easy mark and will be back.

Breaking And Entering

Once we hooked an electric fencer to a battery in a guys rig to prevent his dog from urinating on his wheels.
If you touched any metal, while standing on the ground, it would give you a shock. It pulsed, so you got a shock about every half second.
We joked then, that it could be a good anti theft deterent. That could be pretty funny. Incorporate that with an alarm and pager and you could watch the whole show.
Or you could get an x cam and get a good pic of them in your rig.
