I've set the wheels in motion to purchase my first FJ40 today. I'll know for sure on Tuesday if I get it. It's 99% done but I don't wanna celebrate until it's sittin out front
Anyway, I want to know what you guys do to keep your FJ40 and it's contents stolen. I live in an apartment in a bad neighborhood and plan on having my doors and top off all summer. I have underground parking but it's really no more secure than parking on the street, and at least if it's on the street I can usually look out my window or off my balcony and see it. I've thought about getting a club for the cruiser, a remote kill switch, and an alarm, but I can't really think of anything else. The guy installed a set of four Altec Lansing computer speakers on the roll bars and the sub is mounted under the driver seat. It might sound cheesy but he did a really clean job and they sound great. The stereo and CB are housed in a Tuffy center console so I don't think I have to worry too much about them, but the speakers seem like they'd be easy to steal. Do any of you have paging alarms which will tell you when people are messing with the rig? I know if someone really wants it, they'll get it, but most of the crime around my house comes from bums and low lifes who are just looking to grab something and run. Still, if I had an alarm or some way of knowing, I could easily run down the stairs and confront them/minimize the damage.
So, what do you guys use? Who here has an alarm? Maybe I just need good comprehensive insurance?
