rear slider window lock
« on: March 01, 2015, 04:32:34 pm »
mine is broken, im not sure if i have to buy entirely new sliders or if i can just buy a piece. thefts are pretty big in my city and kind of want this secure. the glass is good so don't really want to replace it either.

when mine broke i just kept it "closed" to look locked. if someone want to get in all they have to do is take a screw driver to that OR bust out a window. i would much rather them slide the window open then bust one out. if they want to get in they will

that is true but i don't want them having an easy way in..would rather just have it locked....this citys been getting real bad car thefts lately and my buddies 86 cutlass was jacked not too long ago :\ might just make some ign disconnect switch and hide it under the seat or something

We do have write ups on how to rig up a switch for the 12v hot wire that runs to the distributor. I'm on my phone right now but I'll look for it
