Immobiliser / alarm / remote etc

Hi all,

Well after losing my keys and having to get a locksmith out to make me new ones (actually only cost me $150 for new door key and new ignition key, which i was totally surprised about), I'm back in the game and am looking at what I can do to secure my car. I've heard of many hair brained schemes, I just need something that's going to create so much of a pain in the A for someone that wants to steal it that they will just give up.

So, what do people recommend? I've heard about the powerlock, that looks unreal but is out of my price range at this early point in time. I will probably go down that route later on in the game, but for now I just need a little bit more peace of mind than I have at the moment :)

Would love to hear your suggestions.

Am also wondering if there's anything I need to know before I go tearing up the wiring in the car, in terms of whether there's certain things i can do and certain things i can't. Would also help me before I go making a decision as to what system to install.

thanks

Matt

An insurer I was with at one stage demanded a Brant multi-point immobiliser be fitted. I looked into it and found it was probably what I would have chosen if I was looking anyway.

They seem to have plenty of experience dealing with Vettes so maybe you might want to think about giving them a go.

What about a Rottweiler .

Mattrix:
haha. nah, too much maintanence. i think i'll just try a combination of a few different things all at the same time, it's bound to slow them down in stupid amounts if they try and break in and steal it.

any other ideas people? thought there would've been a few more responses...

Vette Obsessed:
Nothing to offer but I'll give this a bump as I'm interested in seeing what people have to suggest on this topic also.

While I'm at it here is a link to the alarm company ZEDohSIX referred to in his earlier post:
