Default Broken into AGAIN!!!!!

My baby got broken into again, this is the second time this year. They broke my door handle by popping it where the key goes in the driver side. Is there anyway I can stop this other than letting my Rottie stay in my truck when I am at work?

an alarm wouldnt be a bad investment...least it'd scare the hell outta them when it went off after not having one go off the first 2 times lol.....i've been thinkin bout puttin one one my truck and i've been lookin into that Lo-Jack thing, the one that the cops monitor...might not be a bad deal

Get a alarm wired up to some air horns. and a siren installed under both front seats in case they get in they have a minor audible inconvinience.

If that does not work, place a note on the drivers sade window asking them to please break into someone else's truck.[8D]

I Agree... couple rounds and they will think hard before trying again.... if they can still think that is.... I had a paging alarm put on mine so if someone tampers with it... i'm notified and i can go and activate the smith and wesson alarm.... (in my case a remington 12ga alarm)... either way paging would not be a bad idea... along with lojack... if you have something valuable in the truck... You can also shave your doors so they have no handle to break, and make them pure electric locks (disconnect the manual thing that goes up and down so they can't slimjim the door. and build the motor right into the locking mechanism) Bullet proof glass... and side paneling.... just a few things on my wish list anyways for security...

I was thinking this too. If its the door handle that makes these easy to break into then remove the problem...
