    great gadgets!

    in our local scene, however,

    i believe car robbers are robbers of opportunity.
    he's gonna target the car, because "it's easy to steal".
    thus, any gadget that's easily visible to the would-be robber, that tends to make stealing the car a bit more difficult, will make him get second thoughts, and will probably pass up yon car. these include the cheapest steering wheel locks and blinking alarm lights (na fake naman pala). visible items that will make them think it's not gonna be easy, will deter their evil plan.
    and (maybe) windshield stickers of prominent government offices like police, might also be good deterrents.

    another opportunity, is when they see objects of interest on the car seat. electronics, expensive bags (kahit peke), wallets.
    car owner should do well to keep these in the trunk, away from view.

    an ex-robber was once asked, what cars they target.
    "yung mamahalin ba?"
    "hindi po. yung popular. para madaling i-benta nang buo, o i-katay for piyezas."
    "we'd rather steal a vios or an innova or expander, than a european car."

    What I do before is removed the ignition cable, depending on the circumstances.
