How about one that tells people to leave the car alone?

I fitted a motorbike alarm to mine.

It's pretty good, 2 circuit immobilization plus, a tilt sensor / shock sensor, plus a helmet loop (which is a long cable with a male and female plug in it, which you feed through the open bit of the helmet and it triggers if it goes open circuit). It also has a circuit for protecting the underseat store on the bike, which I'm using to protect the bonnet at the minute!

Came from ebay for about £30!

dont fancy one that talks as ive seen kids taking the miky out of them till the battery runs flat but one that sends a single chirp if they get very close i think may good

I've had a quick look, but I can't see it.

I think mine was an end of line special from a bike shop in Oxford.
