Nicely done 1fast, I'm not nearly big enough to knock someone out with one punch, which is why I have the XD

Phase 1 of security upgrades is now in place...


I've got 24 hour a day access and motion sensitive recording set up, so even if nobody breaks in, I should be able to see anyone checking out the vehicles in the area. Hopefully it works as well at night.

It even notifies me via e-mail whenever the motion sensor is set off and includes a picture and video.

I've ordered the center console safe, hopefully that will be here within a week or so, and I've found a great deal on the Viper 5701 which I can link to SmartStart software with my iPhone.

sorry to hear that man, where did you get the security video thing from?

 

Check out www.homecamera.com

I've still got to play around with the motion detecting software, but it's pretty cool. I might need to get a better camera for night as well.

Here's a quick sample of the motion detection videos...

Phase 2 of security upgrades now complete: locking center console safe.

Open (you can see one of the bolts that hold it in place):


Closed and locked:


I did lose the ability to use my change holder, and lost some interior space. It's a trade off I'm willing to take. Plus I plan on doing a little home surgery to the kleenex holder in the lid to make it more useful.

The Viper alarm system is on the truck to be delivered today, hopefully I can get it installed Wednesday or Thursday.

I also mounted the flashlight you can see in the first pic. I used to keep it in the center console, but it's too long to fit now.

Now all you need is a lock for the ice chest which might have played a part in the "window down " issue.

Sorry couldn't help myself...... looks good.

 

^ too true!

Got the Viper 5701 with remote start installed today. Works great and I feel the truck is a bit more secure now. I might add the iPhone control, but for now I'd rather keep the $300.
