Foxes are extremely easy to break into it took me 10mins and a bent coat hanger.(locked my key in the ignition[&o]) No wonder so many 5.0's get stolen.

i did the same once...I had a guy come up to me saying to get an alarm and that you can break in 5.0's in minutes w/ a hangar. Thensaid his mustang had 15K invested into it when it was stolen and was cut a 4K check from insurance. Now that I have an alarm i don't have the day to day worry that someones gonna steal my car. With the alarm my doors lock automatically at startup and I can pop trunk by remote.

You can get in easier than that, but I'm not gonna post how to do it. ..........................[&:]

I have a hidden switch that kills power to the fuel pump
That baby aint going nowhere. All they can do is crank the battery dead if they "pop column"

^^ that is the best way to secure your car.

not only are they easy to break into but you dont even have to pop the column to start them.

i will not go into detail but all it takes is a screwdriver.

Any chance you could pm me the easier way to get in because I am sure I will lock the keys in again.

I have that too

And an alarm with a 3000 ft range. The remote chimes/vibrates when the alarm goes off and the LCD Screen shows me which part of the car triggered the alarm.
