Quality control?

I had tweaked each one too. That made me mad when I think about the time I put into tweaking each one. A bit over a year ago he had stuff stolen out of his car. Of course, it wasn't locked. Hmm, 15 years later and he still hasn't learned to lock his car!

How did you go about tweaking (tuning?) them? Is it still doable with modern detectors?

I used to hide my detector and leave the car unlocked. The first day I left it in place and locked the car, the detector was stolen by someone who sliced through a new rag-top. A year later someone broke in to get my replacement by prying the door lock on a sedan. I try never to leave it in obvious view anymore. If someone can see it and wants it badly enough (e.g., if it's a good one), no regular lock or alarm can really keep them out.

yeah kinda true but my car has a motion sensor alarm and that keeps mine pretty safe, but i still take it down for long term parking or in sketchy areas.
