Don't suppose anyone knows where the fitting dealer place thingy is for Clifford or do they come to you? (sorry if that doesn't make much sense)

I read a thread a while ago from a guy (in Venezuala ??) - he was putting in a starter button where the ignition barrel sits
in the steering cowel (looked petty cool when finished) and for security he fitted a reed switch hidden somewhere and kept a
small magnet hidden elsewhere in the cabin. So no magnet on the reed = no circuit = no starter.
Seemed like a cool cut-out solution to me (and no keys to lose) !

Best wishes
Monty

I would love a video camera in the dash and connect up ht side of an ignition coil to the steering wheel so when the lovely thieveing person tried driving my car he would have a lovely shock. Then i would publish this lovely video on tinterweb to his embarressment, if still alive :(

My even ground it in the groin area. Happy motoring mr thieve.

Would this be considered thatcham 1?????

Not that i'm a satanist or anything :D

I have a Toad Ai606. Very good alarm and since my mini doesn't have elect windows or central locking I only paid about £200 fitted. That was with the insurance approved certificate.
