el-apache Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Sup guys, well my truck almost got broken into today, I went to the gym and come back noticing that my handle was broken. Well as soon as I got home, I went online and started looking up some anti-theft devices, and saw this Jimmi Jammer, and was wondering if any of you guys have this product, and if it works. My truck is in my signature, atleast my truck gave them a hell of a fight. Jimmi Jammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wody Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 thieves will adapt to whatever anti theft device you have. wedge, and hook or even a brick if desperate enough. are you 100% they used a jimmy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el-apache Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 To be honest I'm not really sure, by the looks of it they tried two different ways, ending with my handle broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12'SROCK Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 sux but the only thing i could recommend is the Autolock, its the only thing i would use after having my truck jacked from me while having after market alarms and lo jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ztorss Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 thieves will adapt to whatever anti theft device you have. wedge, and hook or even a brick if desperate enough. are you 100% they used a jimmy? if the thieve(s) are smart enough and have been doing it for a while they will find a way to get pass it. my truck got broken into a couple months ago. i put in an after market alarm after it happened but i know its not enough so i went old school and chained down my hood so if they going to disable the horn or anything from going off the hood will only go up so far.

packjh Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 shave ur door handles and hide a bush button start to start the vehicle that will be ur best bet but if a thief wants ur car bad enough he will get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_bnoon_SS Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 A thief that knows anything about the Chevy door handles will just pop the whole thing out and pull the pin behind it. Those door handles come off so easy it's not even funny... Jimmy Jammer wouldn't do a thing for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddieo818 Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Well like everyone else says THEY WILL ADAPT TO ANYTHING IF THEIR DESPERATE ENOUGH! after getting my truck stolen i decided to go a different route, i installed two different kill swithces so if they figure one out they wont know what the fuk is going on! One thing that is inevitable is they will get in your truck! but whether they take it or not is still something you can have an effect on, although to take a truck they wont even need to get in it, anybody can just roll up with a tow truck and take it!

desrtrat Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 the jimmi jammer will only slow them down a little, if they know what there doing. using a slim jim on doors is very old school. most newer vehicles have them built into the doors now. from experience, GM trucks are the easiest vehicles to get into, takes me about 30 sec. to get in with no damage at all...best thing is a kill switch somewhere or keep full coverage on all the high tec sound system that they can see Thur the window when they walk by screaming out, HAY, LOOK AT ME...steal me..

Eddie Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 When my truck was stolen they beat a screwdriver into the lock. There was no slim jim used. jimmi jammer defeated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markdamadman Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 if the thieve(s) are smart enough and have been doing it for a while they will find a way to get pass it. my truck got broken into a couple months ago. i put in an after market alarm after it happened but i know its not enough so i went old school and chained down my hood so if they going to disable the horn or anything from going off the hood will only go up so far. oo thast what that thing was for hanging from your hood! i remember seeing you do something with it at the meet when u put ur hood down. i was confused :-\ now it all makes sense! good idea!

oscareltemblo Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 As you guys know mexico city is notorios for car jackings and such well there is a company over there making an anti theft system that if you get car jacked once the door opens the car will shut off in a minute unless you touch two metal screws located in strategic places where ever you want. I guess that you conduct electricity from one hand to another and deactiveate it well this alarm also works while your car is off if they go and steal it, it will run for one minute and then boom everthing off but I guess if they really want you auto they can always tow it.

Back in my oil change shop days we had a taxi that came in that you had to hold a magnet to a spot on dash or it would not start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
