At para matanggal ng carnappers, they need LAGARENG BAKAL.

Another, that electronic alarm and power locks are parasitic loads of the battery. Meaning they consume battery power eventhough your car is parked at home or elsewhere. Therefore your battery life easily shortens po.

We've been doing this po for so many years, mechanical lock ng steering wheel ang gamit nmin. And I always disabled that alarm n power lock ng mga vehicles namin. I really rely sa mechanical lock ng manubel

OK lang mabuksan ang vehicle but they will have hard time to get the vehicle. Carnapping po needs only seconds to accomplish.
Wouldn't this practice even make the work of thieves easier. Maputol lang yung lock, wala na. With the alarm, aside from cutting the wheel lock, thieves have to pry the hood open or dismantle the whole dashboard to disable the system. That would take them a few seconds longer to steal your car. Ikaw na nga rin nagsabi, carnapping only takes a few seconds.

Battery? 5,000 lang yan compared to losing your prized property.
