Almost got car jacked

Some pos came early this morning trying to break into my Camaro. Luckily their attempts failed, crazy part after about 30 min they had return when I was gone for work.

seriously how are you going to sleep at night knowing your a target?
And living in California with no way to protect your belongings without getting yourself in trouble.

Wait a minute...you're in Carson. So do you live near the Pavillion? Or are you more on the Rancho side?

My 1SS (the one in this thread: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=624216) was stolen out of Lakewood--not surprisingly, near the Lakewood Mall.

If so, it's probably the same group that's hitting Bellflower, Cerritos, and North Long Beach like wildfire. This s*** needs to stop.

I feel terrible for you folks. I need to invest in a security system but can't really break the coin to do it right now.

Faraday key holder $10
OBD port lock $55
Mobilistics immobilizer $140

Total $205

No excuse for not at least doing this if you have a $50k car.

Oh, forgot, steering wheel lock $35. Total $240

I recommend this type of security alarm. Can be loud at times, and drooly, but will let you know when someone is in your yard....

You guys have any recommendations on OBD port locks?

The only item in the list that's a minor daily inconvenience is the Mobilistics unit, but that's still a million times better than having your car stolen and parted out or wrecked, with the police doing absolutely nothing and you (effectively) not having the right to protect your own hard earned property.

Thank you and Allez(via PM) for the links, can't be safe enough these days.

Looks like another Camaro on the street, hanging in your driveway. Wonder if that's what they drove up in and its likely a stolen one as well?...

Good luck, hope yours wasn't damaged that badly.

Time to clear out whatever's in the garage and start parking inside.

Let me guess -> "you were raised in a generation where parking in a garage is common sense." :smiling1:
