aiya... nothing we can do if they really wan 2 steal ur car.. even u take of ur wheel they can tow it.. I been reading evo been steal thread, they do all the stuff u guy suggested n car still gone, if they mark u already, they know wat to do, weh u go etc.. If they cannot steal they grab it when u in it with a gun or parang. Got 1 fellow kena tikam then car gone. wat 2 do..? i also dun know.. dun shoot me, just my cent.. sorry...

Ill share what my mech has done on my car:

1. Dual ignition switch - can start the engine either by turning ignition key / a secret button that already exist in your dash eg unused A/C button or external radio control button. Have one switch to only enable EITHER one to work at any time.

2. Fuse cut off switch (hidden) - when not turned on, all electronics will not function like RPM, Speed, lights, power steering, radio etc

3. My fav and best of all is err i dono wats it called, but i looks like a 3 pin round socket (in the engine bay), when removed engine cannot be started even with (1) and (2) enabled. I remove this whenever I park my car in public places like Malls, office, or when parked my car out of sight.

I would suggest you go to bawah pokok mechanics (less risky) or DIY, then reputable shops to get these fixes as the less ppl know abt it, the safer ure car. Personally I dont use any car alarms and wouldnt recommend alarm systems as the codes/signals can be 'caught' and duplicated within a minute. Seen it being done at my usual accessory shop. So use manual key lock, safest :)
