[QUOTE="iamtheshaner, post: 13903156, member: 157055"] Sucks man, depending on your deductible it may be best to just go through the insurance especially if the door sheet metal needs to be fixed. I lived in Detroit for about 3 years and had a Taurus stolen in the same manner. Of course, the police didn't care - they said "hang tight I'll find your car stripped of all valuables in about 48 hours in southwest Detroit, just call your insurance and have a nice life". That's exactly what happened. So, at that point I put full coverage on the foxbody, installed a starter inhibit alarm without a siren and programmed it to randomly honk the horn (which people tend to pay more attention to). It being a manual though, was still capable of being push started. So I wired the fuel pump relay control circuit in series with my seatbelt switch. The car would only run with the seatbelt buckled. SUPER EASY job on a fox with the fuel pump relay under the driver's seat. Little more complicated with SN95's and CCRMs but I'd consider running some sort of fuel cut on a hidden switch. If a thief wants your car bad enough there is nothing you can do. Make it so they need a towtruck is the best you can do, really. Lo-Jack, GPS tracker, shotgun tripwire, alarm, fuel cut switch - all highly recommended [/QUOTE]
