I understand trying all these crazy devices splicing into fuses and wires but honestly if there is a will there is a way and shitbags don’t care.
If the car is your priceless artifact keep it hidden and locked away, if it’s just a car keep a high insurance payout policy in effect and hope it’s never recovered.
I’m somewhere in the middle here, my car was stolen and it was both a precious artifact and just a car to me. I daily drove it and plan to daily my next car. I’m not in a high theft area, I was out of town when it was stolen, and it was done with the obdii key reprogramming tool. I’m looking for ways to be able to drive and enjoy the car I’m paying for, without some scumbag being able to easily take it. Investing in some of the items here will hopefully yield a solution that gives me not only peace of mind but actually stops a thief.
