  Just take the motor with you when you leave your car. Like those expensive car radios back in the early 2000s.

  It's so satisfying that the thief went through so much effort tearing apart the car only to have to give up.

  Best thing to do is a 1-2$ switch hidden on your fuel pump power wire

  If there is ever a part 2, we need Lock Picking Lawyer on it! I'd love to see what vulnerabilities he would find. Richard still did great as he noted the weak points actual thieves would attack. Lock Picking Lawyer will show us how unsecure these products really are. I have a feeling that the lock cylinders on most of these products can be raked or bumped.

  Can't believe they didn't review the trunk monkey. Best anti-theft device.

  Best solutions are for Anti-Theft is:<br>Add a immobilizer / hidden kill switch.<br><br>And for tracking:<br>Buy a cheap smartphone, buy the cheapest 5g internet plan, add a tracker app to the phone, hide it under a panels with a permanent charger attached to it. The tracking should last until the car battery drains + 5~10days from the phone battery in standby mode.<br>A alternative is hide a apple airtag on the car. Its not as precise as a smartphone with GPS but last ~1 year before you have to change the battery.<br>You can also use both options for redundancy.
