springs coming up boys! and that means doorless weather! so this raises a question of mine, what are some good alarm systems for convertibles/jeeps i have looked into a couple but i dont trust the reviews on the pages. anybody here have experience with some alarm systems of the sort? i know it wont keep people from stealing my goodies but it will definitly offer protection in the areas im afraid of getting robbed since i live in the middle of nowhere

 

Huh? You want an alarm system, to protect you from getting robbed, and you know it won't keep thieves from stealing your stuff?

 

Pretty simple, if you value it don't leave it in your jeep.

Having an alarm system on a doorless jeep is like putting a screen door on a submarine. LOL

 

Hah this! My Wrangler spends the entire summer without the top and doors and the key is to keep your valuables somewhere else. They can't steal what's not there.

 

I dont have much in there but i have my 10" sub in the "trunk" area and my CB radio bolted in up front. im pretty sure a system would scare any burglars off with a few "warning GPS integrated alarm system" stickers on the windows and 2nd amendment stickers, its all a scare tactic haha. nobody will mess around unbolting a CB or snipping a heavy sub with an alarm going off

 

Wanna bet? They'll do it with the alarm going off or not; you may be right about unbolting, they'd probably just rip it out causing even more damage. And I'd skip the 2A stickers, they'll wait to make sure you aren't around and toss your ride looking for a weapon. "Warning GPS blah blah.....", sounds fake and thieves probably won't take time to read every sticker anyway, why not just get a LoJack sticker?
Take the advice already offered, either don't keep it in your vehicle, or at least try to keep it somewhat hidden.

 

A Alarm and door locks only stop honest people.

 

When I go doorless, I keep my hatch locked. I know it won't stop thieves but it will slow them down. The only valuables I have in mine are tools under the back seat and my hi lift in the back

 

Good advice all around, might depend on location to though. only time im really gonna have an issue where stuff might get stolen is when i head into town 20 miles away to get something from wallmart or the mall. we dont have much of a crime rate here and i spend 90% of my time in the country. i have had a thread similar to this before talking about having nets but same results. as for locking the hatch, mine is stuck forever due to an incident in the rear so i would love to see em try to get in there. I think the $ will just go towards the engine build for now. Thanks!

 

Driving on the roads door less is not a good idea and illegal in some places.I rather have a door between me and something hitting me vs just air.

 

One big bad Pit Bull chained up in it but then only good till someone shoots him.

 

i got a pretty mean shizu...

 

Consider that thieves don't care about cops/cameras/jail/prison what does an alarm really do?
Provides for a major inconvenience to you.

 

Maybe just rig a kill switch setup so they at least can't steal the vehicle.

Thieves would never think to steal one o these



Your ride on this going down the road with the alarm sounding, do think even the cops are going to care?
