Scared to put nice things cuz i have a civic

i have a 95 civic and thats like one of the easiest cars to break into

is there any way i can change the locks on my door or add an awesome alarm system so that i dont need to take out my deck everytime i leave my car?

Thieves don't need keys, and trust me, that wouldn't turn off any thieves.

Ill tell you this for example...

Im at B&D wreckers in oakville...
Locked my keys in the car. alarm was armed. Remote was seperate from the key,and i didnt have power locks...
Go into the office and asked for a clothes hanger and bam
I was in my own car before my alarm even went off.

Civics are the easiest to get into

Pry the window out of the upper weatherstripping with your fingers, it hurts sometimes.
untwist a cloth hanger, use the hook and just hook it on the lock ****, and pull.
Jump in, open hood, yank battery cable off the battery haha

No no, best is to use a blood pressure cuff slide it in between the door and and body at the top corner and slowly pump it up. Learned it from a tow truck driver!

you dont want to damage the door. also under higher preassure the window could actualy shatter or you can end up bending the frame around the glass.

and you dont want damage done to your car.
