Get in, make sure parking brake is up, foot is not on brake and car is off.
Insert key into ignition, then cycle through turning key on/off 5 times without starting the car and do it with rhythm, not too fast and not too slow. Like once per 1.5 seconds.
The system will chirp to let you know it's in program mode and now all remotes are deleted, hit button 1 on any remote you want to add.

This is from memory, it should be mostly correct if not completely. I'm not sure if the fifth time you should leave the key on or off, can't remember.

I'm going to do it, but I'm going to make sure the steps are 100% correct before I do it heh.. Last thing I want is to be disabled and have no remote work.

I can tell you this....I'm 100% sure that whenever you get to the stage where it deletes the remotes, you definitely just have to hit button 1 to program new remotes. DEFINITELY. So there's no chance to not having a remote programmed, go try it.

this is the extent of the setup I bought from dealextreme


usb audio and video capture.

downloaded a surveillance software that has motion tracking, loop recording and all the other goodies. dedicated my netbook to surveillance duty for now.


only a single camera for my setup aimed directly at my car and parking spot.

if you read the reviews and check out the pictures associated with the camera you get a pretty good idea of what youre buying. Nothing crazy but for the price, cant be beat for a simple quick setup. day time image is good, night time is also not bad at least for for my needs.

what i'm likely going to do down the road to upgrade to HD is modify one of the nicer HD webcams and build a custom waterproof enclosure and substitute that in as my camera with a new IR night vision grid.


another cheap option

Dude, you didn't lock it. That's your problem. Now stop the discussion.

There is a group that goes from neighborhood to neighborhood in the summer months going from car to car to see if any are unlocked.

See someone walking the street late at night (past 1:00 AM) with a backpack phone the cops.

Oh and another tip dont leave a single coin in ure cup holder. Youd ne surprised what some will do for their morning timmies.

And what you guys think about gps? Are they targets for thieves? Is gps something that should be put away?
