alarms and fake stickers only protect against the honest thieves as dumb as that sounds,no alarm or alarm sticker is gonna stop someone from breaking in your ride if they really want to.but it may deter the average dumb *** from taking your **** should you forget to keep it locked up.

Agreed Hood81.

What it really comes down too, is not keeping anything in your vehicle that would catch someones eye...also tinted windows/not being able to see inside. They arent gonna waste their time if they cant see anything worth their time.

Lock your doors and don't keep anything within sight.

My condo complex has had issues with vehicle break-ins. There are two kinds of vehicles they have been targeting.

The first is unlocked vehicles. They have been going around checking to see if any vehicles are unlocked. If the car is unlocked, they will go through the trunk, glovebox, console, etc.

The second is vehicles with valuables left in sight. One of my neighbors left his laptop in his car. Somebody broke the window and stole the laptop.

So the best security is just common sense. Don't make your vehicle a target.

Buy a security system than buy a programable siren and program a womens bloody murder scream or something just as crowd drawing or another favorite of mine is get a security system and put the sirens under the front seats maybe no one else will look when the alarm goes off but I sure as hell ain't stickin around to be definned by two sxirens in the cab
