changing stock alarm would simply mean cutting of wires, in which many would afraid it would void warranty

so, best solution is to get urself a pedal lock, which once lock engine cnt be started, and most importantly easy to use and wont void warranty

not saying that a steering lock isnt good, but again, after some time, we will feel lazy to lock, and where shud we keep that bulky thing?

and a good steering lock would cost up to 3xx such as stoplock

i personally think locktech which is pedal lock is more useful~

Why you need so many locks?

I don't use any lock. If they(expert) want to steal your car, whatever locks also no use unless you have security system like Jaguar, Lexus, BMW, etc.

Correct me if I am wrong.

as simple as, if there 2 bicycle out there to steal, both same model, same design, will u steal the one with the tyre locked. or the one that is just left there just like tat

Got point..

Means the RCU unit alarm frequency run away maybe><
this usual happen to vios

Well not all thieves are "expert".... some kinda stupid one...

hi.. vios white e spec '10 reporting in ... ^^
btw.. wanna ask all bro here... im thinking of wanna change my rims... thinking changing to 17".. but i heard ppl say 17" will make d car heavier... even naik genting oso susah ... is tat true??

this is what i think, if they need to spend more time to steal a car,
maybe they will quit to do so.

is it toyota sc can solve it?
i will send my car for 1st service tomorrow,
will try to ask them whether can solve the problem or not.

yesterday i park my vios beside my neighbour's car: vios too,
when i want to open my back boot by alarm controller,
my neighbour's car alarm alerted,
is it because of alarm frequency crash?

another thing is dont forget to get your car window done with sandblasting, so no use if thief steal ur car and change ur car plate number

think of it as your size 8 feet wearing say... size 12 shoes... any difference?

bigger rims = wider tyres = more road contact = more grip = more friction = "heavy" feeling, correct me if i'm wrong

You are missing the main point: more fc = more $$ spent

and

you car will become less responsive. You need to pedal a bit more to move your car.

Overall, 17" rim is not ideal if you want to save petrol money for monthly expenses.

IF TATS THE CASE 16" WILL BE BETTER???
CZ WIT 15"... FEEL LIKE BURGERTAR.... LOLZ...

it's a 1.5l car ler... not like it's a powerful 6 series where you can slap a 255/35R19 into it and still can accelerate like mad...

its putting ur car number plate number at ur windscreen .. so there is ur number plate at ur glass .. so even if they change ur car plate, we can still see your car registration number at ur window

er, already explain as simple as i can d..so have any idea wat am i talking about?

how much it cost to do that?? i think to do it..

usuaaly from 20 to 30 for 4 windows depends on ur location lo.. u r from ?????

kota damansara. Where to do it??

most acc shop have it or hehe u can come my place at klang hahahaq
