Now *THAT* is > what *I* call a theft deterrent device. =) As pathetic as it sounds, I believe if a potential thief was harmed in any way by such a device that he could sue the owner of the automobile and possibly win. When my Jetta was stolen, I looked into many anti-theft devices, including one that would basically render the thief deaf from an inside sound blast if he (or she) tried to start the car without the key. I seem to recall seeing disclaimers on the guy's website claiming you should "check your local municipality's regulations" on this because it was potentially illegal. I gather it's the same kind of thinking that if a thief enters your home, and you shoot him or wound him in some way, he can sue you. For all I know, these are both urban legends, but I think we all know how crafty defense attourneys can be. :) Aaron __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
