Ok... how do we change the sensitivity of our alarm?? I want it to go off when someones rubbin on it, not when a freakin Jet flys by, or when somethin realli loud drives by.

skilletrx,

there is a knob if you get under and look up at the steering column. It's a black box w/ a white knob on it. Turn it counterclockwise to de tune the sensitivity.

Where did you get your speed btw?

I've turned my alarm sensitivity almost all the way up cause this guy on my street is always vandalising my cars. With my P5 he stole several shift knobs and punctured a few tires. He's tried to get into this car, but the alrm went off. I loved it cause i was watching, the bastard jumped like 3 feet in the air, then i ran out and scared him with a bat. But back on topic, you need a very small flathead screwdriver to turn the little white knob, and someone very flexible as well...lol

Ah....why don't you videotape him in action since he does it all the time? This happened to a freind of mine who lived in an apartment. He positioned his camcorder out the window (which ofcourse looked at his car), and bang....idiot is caught and charged. Problem fixed.

It's not worth videotaping the guy, it's not as often that he does this since he now knows I have an alarm, but if it did continue, i would take such action, thank you for the tip though.
