They'll just rip off the siren lol..

Just get a big club lock for your steering wheel, will deter most. Or get your alarm installer to do some funnies.. My immobiliser has its leads going into a sealed blackbox and the other side has double the leads coming out.. All black of course. Should frustrate most to move on.

You can use the factory wheel lock (turn wheel until it locks with keys out) so if your car gets hot-wired, they can't steer. Generally a seasoned car thieve will get around immobilizers in 5 mins approx.

You'll be fine with alarm, immobilizer, factory steering lock and wheel clublock. Add a killswitch if you want as well I guess.

After all of that, they're only gonna steal it by flatbedding it away and I don't think they'd bother, especially in a carpark.

Especially for a car thats worth 10 grand.

If I had a flatbed, I'd drag the Ferrari outta the carpark, not the ricer burner.

thats awesome, probably the thing only worth doing, they can still steal your stereo but hey they cant take your car by driving it.
