This is another good one;

Viper GPS tracker

Gues what it also shows where the car is, and has been, and how fast it is and has been driving, I'm thinking my kids can no longer lie to me about their driving habits

Common sense things that you should do in all cars will keep your s safe. Don't leave stuff visible like a head unit. Have a good alarm. Most importantly, park it in safe places. I still recommend seat locks even if some may slash your seats instead. Them slashing your seats is a waste of their time and won't get them any $$. I have 3 friends with mint s2k seats in their cars that are worth about 5k tops. Whether they stole them or not isn't the issue, because I can gaurantee you they didn't buy them from someone for more than a few hundred bucks.

Rivets work nicely. You can always drill them out if necessary, but thieves don't come equipped for that.
What good will that do? It's not going to prevent them from simply unplugging the harness and plugging it into the ECU they bring.

NO! Don't take 2 spots.
I agree, and it actually annoys people enough to be more likely to vandalize your car.
