It happened again. Theft Attempt #2

I bought the car a year ago. 6th Gen ZL1. I park it in my driveway because I have another car in the garage. In May two kids probably 19-20 walked up to it around 3 AM and shined a flashlight into it. They put a towel on the window and we're about to punch it when I went into the garage and they got spooked and ran away.

The next day I started looking at anti theft measures for our cars. Within a week I added 4 levels of anti theft to address the key fob programming, fob relay entry, and a few others.

Last night they came again. This time they broke the window. I watched it happen on my cameras and called the cops. They had one guy punch the window and one guy covering my front door while another was in a getaway car. He connected his programmer to my OBD 2 port and guess what? Nothing happened. I activated the camera mic, told him he wasn't getting the car, and activated the siren. They took off.

If you do not have any theft measures on your car, please add them.

Sucks I had to replace the window but I was not worried at all that they'd actually get the car. They didn't even make it past any of anti theft measures. The car will remain garaged now.
