Question Stolen HeadLight Solutions

Just wanted to give some tips on HOW TO PREVENT YOUR HEADLIGHTS from gettting STOLEN!

With my M5 I had similiar problems with people trying to steal my HID fog lamps, so my local car audio dealer installed shock sensors (4 of them because I was ****) to the factory alarm.

This is how it works for those that don't know. Shock sensors have a metal pin in them and when some one dings your car, or shakes it slightly the pin moves activating your car alarm. With the Porsche, it would actually honk the horn and flash the lights, and hopefully scare any intruder away.

The install is very simply, two wires that tap into any of your alarm pins (I used the hood pin) and double side tape the shock sensor unit to where ever you want the most protection (ie the headlights).

On my M5 I put 1 on each of the doors (protect against door dings) and 1 next to each of the fog lamps in the bumper. You can also adjust it so it doesn't have too many flase alarms or raise it to the max sensitivity and be extra safe.

The total price was a little bit over $50 if that and I used DEI sensors (VIPER and Clifford), so hopes this helps! If anyone has any trouble locating the sensors, let me know and let's catch these Ebay theives!!!

StephenTi is infamous around these parts
We should anchor the headlights with a steel wire that has a faux clip in the middle. The faux clip would activate a tazer-like jolt when pressed.

So, when the ****heads pull the lights and exposes the wire with faux clip, they'll reach over and push the clip thinking it'll release the cable. That will send a jolt that'll leave them lying next to your car foaming at the mouth til the cops arrive.
