27-07-08, 14:37 GMT+10#21 my experience with solex locks is that they pop off just as easy as regular door locks, i'm going to piss my locks off completely and just rely on central locking. Retain the boot lock and keep the battery in there...

27-07-08, 16:28 GMT+10#23 You can still get into VLs even with solex locks (and without smashing any windows)... Yes its a deterrant but it sucks to think you put an effort to make it less likely to be stolen and something may happen afterwards....
You're lucky, coz if they cant steal the car, they like to vandalise the hell outta it! Like some of my unlucky customers that live around where I work. Windows and windscreens smashed good and proper...

27-07-08, 19:16 GMT+10#25 granted they can get the solexs off (and they didnt stop my vlct getting nicked), but at least they cant f*ck them up with a screwdriver so u cant use them. get solexs/shaved locks, a cover of some sort for the head unit, screamer siren under the dash, multiple kill switches and a dirty great big rotweiler in the back seat.
