I'd like to find out what are the low buck items that people get, use or do to prevent the thieves form taking our babies. Not everybody can afford GPS or full coverage insurance. What works and what doesn't. I think GPS is the best for 250.00.

http://www.ravelco.com/ Certainly not low budget, but well worth it I think. Do your research on this one.

Does anybody know how to install a kill switch on a 95? I know it can't be that difficult. I would like to save some money and do it myself.
Thanks

there's wires going to it, right?

trace the wires back and install a switch that breaks one of the wires.

If they want the car they are gonna steal it no matter what kill switch doesnt stop a tow truck.Only thing u can do install lo jack and get a pistol to handle them when they on the spot or go hunt em down if they already got it.
