Hello fellow Tiger fans, I just bought a MK1 and was wondering what you all do in regards to theft protection? Low Jack, ignition switches, etc. Also if I was to put a stereo in the car any thoughts

IMHO, theft protection keeps you from starting the car more often than it does a thief, but I guess that kinda depends on where you live. I put an Alpine brand radio in the center under the dash usin

Up until about a month ago I had a Mallory Unilite distributor in my Tiger, and if I was leaving the car anywhere for any length of time I'd remove the rotor. That's a piece that a thief wouldn't nec

I use a battery disconnect switch with a removable threaded key. It's quick to remove and the car has no power without it. Obviously, it is possible to work around, but it would take a few minutes to

I once had a sister-in-law in Rahwey, NJ who was having her car repeatedly stolen by someone who used it to drive to work. She tried this trick with the rotor, and the thief bought a rotor and contin

I have the same set-up that Rick has. Unfortunately, I have fooled myself on occasion when I return to the car and forget I flipped the switch. VERY embarrassing! But effective. Regards, Allan --Orig

Chris, this sounds wild. Can you tell us more about this? I remember reading in Road and Track or C&D many years ago about a reformed car thief recounting his escapades. He said he repeatedly stole a

Mine has a remote lock/alarm system. It's got a great Bond-girl voice that says, "System armed!" when you push the remote button. It features a motion detector of the usual variety plus one that dete

One simple kill switch involves a vacuum operated switch. With the car stopped, everything is normal, electric pump running and everything. As soon as the car starts, the vacuum switch turns off the

Jeff, a reasonable attempt at theft deterrence can be made very simply. The first thing I did was to install a second dimmer switch above the original and out of view that simply turns off the igniti

I used a cut-off switch on the battery plus I hooked up a switch on the dash to cut the ignition. I labeled this switch Fog Lights, never lost my Tiger. On the subject of mounting a radio the idea of

The two most effective theft deterents that I have used over the years are: 1) remember to remove the keys from the ignition and place them in my pocket 2) close the garage door. When I am out in th

Everybody: Try this test. Take any key in your pocket that will fit into a Tiger/Alpine igniton. I'll bet that it'll turn and start 80% of the time! Those 35 year old tumblers really don't care anymo
