im not reading this s**t. i think i posted in it a while ago. heres a couple things ive learned...
my freind showed my how a thief steals a honda or acura. once inside your car, it will take about 15 seconds and theyre gone. il have pics later. youll laugh at how easy it is.
if i wanted to open your hood, i would go to the drivers side wheel and reach under the fender liner and pull on the cable. if you re rerouted it, good for you. now im going to break your grill and get to the cable that way. once the hood is open and the alarm goes off, i just disconnect the battery. if you have a backup battery and a pager, you might have a chance. otherwire i would cut the wires to all the siren and horns. after that your car is helpless.
the way most people wire alarms are a joke. any moron can figure out which wire now has a relay in it if its under the steering colum. i suggest telling the installer to use your fuel pump wire. a theif will get thrown off if they dont know this.
now all those clutch, steering, brake and gas pedal locks dont work. they can be bent in a couple seconds. just pull them to the side and theyre done.
taking your ecu out can work sometimes. the problem is you can take a d series ecu and make it run a bseries/h series. as long as they know what year the car is they can match the harness to the ecu. for example a 92-95 civic uses a p06 or p28. a 96 civic uses a obd2a p2p or p2e.
the dealer keys with chips in them. i think the 02-05 si has em and the rsx type s has them. they work thru the ecu. if you have kpro, you can disable the key code thing and start the car. they just get your old ecu out and plug the kpro in.
those wheel boot things dont work unless you have some really good lug nuts. you can take a screwdriver and hammer to turn the lug nuts. you can also use those striped nut remover things depending on the rims.
the fuel pump writeup trick on here can work if the thief cant get the rear seat up. f**k the switch. theyre not going to look for that. once they find the cut and new wire, they know to connect the 2 wires to the way they were and theyre off. this also goes for the drivers kickpanel. its not hard to figure out
one thing that ive seen that has bin bulletproof so far is to get a combination lock. look under the driversside and look for the bar the goes from the steering colum to the firewall. there is a little spot where you can put a lock. if you look at it theres is almost no way a thief is going to get lock cutters in there. this will make it impossible for the theif to turn the car. if you cant turn the wheel on the car, you cant drive it.
thats all i can think of right now. ive placed with hondas for a while. ive learned some of these things the hard way. just looking out for everyone.
