put up a sign in the window, protected by Smith & Wesson and to the right of it, maybe an NRA sticker of some sort.

My old Mazda had a badass security system and it was completely by accident.

There was a problem with the ignition so putting the key in and turning it would rarely start the car. SO we had to put a bypass in, so in order to start the car you had to

1) put the key in
2) turn the ket to 1 (where the cars not one, but you can do stuff like play the radio)
3) Have the temp dial all the way on heat
4) Press the button labeled "rear glass spray"

Upon pressing the button the car would start.

The car was supposed to start after turning the key to 1 and pressing the rear glass spray button, but for some reason it would only work when the temp was all the way on heat.

How would you go about setting up a bypass system on a regular car without ignition problems?

I wonder if he has a history of burglary because experience teaches wisdom. Good stuff though.
