They did my van a few months ago....great bit of kit, a little tip for you Will, take a photo of the key cards with the numbers on them for extra keys and email it to yourself so that way you will always have the numbers even if you lo=se the cards..
Very good advice 👍
E-Mail is as secure as a Post Card ……. The Whole World can read it.
@@EnglishVeteran
Yes you are correct but who will know what you mean by the random combination of numbers and letters in your e-mail. You don’t need to state in your e-mail or text message its a key code to your vehicle security system.
@@TheftStop Hi Jaro, i come to your place to have my lock fitted back in March on a new relay, we did talk about the safe so I haven't forgot, iv just had some stuff done to the seat area sop I will call you soon ok and see if we can get the safe to fit...
Brilliant idea. I must do that with mine
Hi Will it's great to see that your heads in a better place, your looking much happier.
I'm looking forward to future episodes, take it easy.
Thank you 😊
@@WillsWhereabouts u seen the reply a got above wtf looks like a fake will kicking about
This is an AWESOME product & such a great idea! I haven't seen this installed by anyone we "know" (sounds weird, but after following you for so long, I know we align on how we think about things!) Glad you're gonna have this feature, and hopefully more "peace of mind". We're getting close to finishing & keep saying to each other that we're gonna be so nervous/anxious the first few times we leave our van for more than just an hour or so. After so much time, energy, & work, its hard to imagine the heartbreak of a break-in! Stay cool 🥵
I had the bear lock fitted by these guy 1 year ago. 100% recommend having this fitted. Great service from start to finish and really not that expensive..
Thanks for taking the time to comment, I can’t fault the team at all, awesome guys and great to know you have had it for a length of time and are still happy 😃
Brilliant Will, now you have 2 more keys on your key ring….. you must jingle more than father christmas
😂😂
Ha ha love this 😂
I’m from Nl and he is right, most insurance company’s require bearlock (or construct which is similar). Some on all campervans independent of value, others on vans over a certain value, some only selective (eg over 20k or high demand vans like a vw transporter).
Only disadvantage is seperate keys. Insurance in nl requires all keys if you claim a stolen vehicle to prove you have used the bearlock. Not all keys? Claim denied
Another great safety is adding a prickstop. The ducato (and boxer/relay) are bloody easy to unlock with a screwdriver by pushing it below the lock and lever the central locking. Yt for some examples of the prickstop
What a great bunch of guys. Just picture Mary flying backward through the town. If you mention your security system to your insurance company you may get a little discount. A mechanical lock like that is so much better than an electrical one which are easily by-passed. My dad was a car transporter and used to collect repos and abandoned cars. He showed me so many ways to open the locks, rewire immobilisers/alarms and start cars without keys. Its scarily easy. Safe is great idea, keep some emergency cash in it too, for fuel or the morning pain au chocolat. I wouod get yourself some foam padding for inside the safe so things dont get damaged if your on a bumpy road, sliced up old yoga mat would do the trick. Cracker video mate, looking forward to the next one. Safe travels
Nice one Will. that looks an awesome bit of kit. I think they used to have a similar system in Saabs, The ignition key wouldn't come out unless you were in reverse. Brilliant idea. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Paul 🙏
Now that you have a safe, the idea is to stash the valuables elsewhere and let the thieves spend their time tearing out and breaking into a empty safe.
Never thought that way 😂
Very interesting 😬
Good idea
That's the point. I don't like this kind of safes. Take a angle grinder and see how fast you are...
The only problem with the diversion safe tactic in this application is the fact that the entire target can be moved elsewhere, regardless of the immobilisation 😉
When parking up just remember to reverse upto a wall/tree etc it isn't going anywhere.

I like it 👍
I'll bring my chain saw then.
@@JazzFunkNobby1964 no need for a chainsaw, you can just burn the tree down with your chinese heater
@@wildforesthome6563 Haha I have a diesel heater stalker.
It's wonderful
A professional operation cleans up after their work. These gents did just that. Very much appreciated at the attention to detail they have.
this really is an amazing product, up in glasgow its bad for builders vans getting stolen, usually full of expensive tools and equipment, every van owner really should have this for a bit of peace of mind
Couldn’t agree more! 👍👍
Any extra security is a must, making opportunist walk away or even the more hardened criminal who might look at yours and think its not worth the hassle and moves onto an easier target. System looks great and the safe even more so, love the break off bolts.
@+①②⑥②⑨⑤⑤⑧⑨④⓪WhatsApp SCAMMER this is a scammer pretending to be will, please dont fall for it and report account
Extra security for the win 👍👍
Cracking talker in front of the camera too. Conversation flows, you rarely trip up your words too. Good talent/skill
Definitely looks like a necessary piece of kit because you don’t realise how much all your stuff is until it’s gone. I remember my dad did this thing to his van were the van wouldn’t start unless you turned on the windscreen wipers first? Lol but yeah, piece of mind is what it’s about and made up you’ve got yourself sorted there, Will 😎👍🏻
What a lovely bunch of lads. Was cracking up with the banter.
👍👍
You can just put kill switch (it kills the current from the battery). And you hide it somewhere only you know.
@+①②⑥②⑨⑤⑤⑧⑨④⓪WhatsApp SCAMMER this is a scammer pretending to be will, please dont fall for it and report account
Theft stop guys seem like excellent engineers , love there safe and shearnuts, what a great company.
Couldn’t agree more! 👍👍
Saab had this from the facktory and I had an American car from about 1973 with gear lock in first and revers gear. This is a nice thing to have.
Don't invite the 'Lock Picking Lawyer' round. Haha!
Our locks are highest security you can get on the market but there is no lock on the market that can’t be picked by someone with his skills.
Good news is that if someone have his skills they will not be working in car theft.
Too risky business for someone with such a skill.
I'd also always put a tracker on a van I can't understand why others don't do this , it's so easy to clone keys or just tow your van away , this looks a great product, your looking well young will much love brother ❤
@+①②⑥②⑨⑤⑤⑧⑨④⓪WhatsApp SCAMMER this is a scammer pretending to be will, please dont fall for it and report account
Thanks for the advice John 👍
I've seen a few other youtube vanners having them fitted. Its a great bit of kit and I'd love to have it fitted to viv-i-van but having had to sell a kidney to get my ECU and my adblue system replaced after they failed (1100 quid gone) she's going to have to wait for anything else. I'm that poor now I just managed to afford a ridge monkey in case I do get out in her. It will be great for you if you go abroad again. all the best, Kenny.
I have a bear lock in my motorhome. The lovely Jaro and Andre fitted it when I was staying at Oaktree Motorhomes who fitted my solar and WiFi system. I feel so safe with it as who wants to drive a motorhomes backwards down a road. Theft stop are so professional I loved them 😊
Couldn’t agree more, great team and I have much more price of mind about the safety of Mary now! 👍
i'd also use a cheap steering lock (or similar) more for a visual deterrent. The Bear lock looks great but you don't want someone breaking a window getting in, only to find they can't drive forward! just something visual to put off the opportunist so they move on to the next van.
I would think you should fit stickers to show that these products are fitted, someone would do a lot of damage trying to get the van away
Great bit of kit, had ours in over a year now and works perfectly! Adds piece of mind as well. That safe looks tasty too!
Thank you girls.
Will be in touch soon
Em's new snack safe...
I remember your video on it, Lou needs a safe installed
@@missybennett600
Definitely 😂😉
@@PK_Blinder believe it or not we’ve found new snack storage (chilled as well) in the van!! Of course it will be in Sundays vid due to her sheer excitement for it!
So glad to see you in your upbeat self again, another great video xx
Thank you 🙏
Perfect, it’s good to have a piece of mind that your home on wheels and valuable’s are safe
@+①②⑥②⑨⑤⑤⑧⑨④⓪WhatsApp SCAMMER this is a scammer pretending to be will, please dont fall for it and report account
💯 👍
A cheap thing to add is a kill switch to the fuel pump and hide it somewhere in the cab
That as well as a bear lock … awesome
The more security the better 👍🤘
I did this but the mechanical high pressure pump will drag the fuel through the electrical pick-up pump so this doesn't work.
Will you are looking and sounding so much happier, Hi from NZ, love your Channel.
Thank you Kerri 💜✌️
What a nice bunch of guys. Good bit of publicity too. Nice one Will. 👍
Thanks Pammy 🙏
Perfect video! Just made an enquiry about both as I’m going full time van life soon! Cheers will
Thank you and happy travels for when you go full time 🤘🤘
Brilliant product from a great team at theftstop, we tell everybody what a great product this is
Fantastic product!
Oh those guys installed the same ‘reverse locking’ system thing on Em and Lou’s van at Camper Vibes…. Looks like a great service.
Love having mine, piece of mind and Jaro is a legend... I bet he didn't do much work though 🤣🤣🤣🤣!
Bear lock system is same as standard Saab system. Nice one.
👍👍
Great video Will and what a cool bunch of guys theft stop are providing a great and informative service. its a great system and im not surprised its a Polish product , they are the most car obsessed and some of the best mechanics ive ever had working on my car over the years. Viva Polska. much respect from Ireland!
Another class video mate!!! Keep them coming, I had a really bad accident in my van last week and it's unfortunately written off now. Absolutely gutted, mainly because I had put so much work into it. Although I managed to salvage the majority of my electrics and diesel Heater etc
So sorry about your van, glad you are ok though!
hello from the Netherlands .
that man from that company may better put his facts in his head in his sales story and not hang up any lies .
a bearlock is NOT required at all in the Netherlands.
the facts : For motorhomes with a catalog value or appraisal value up to € 75,000, at least a factory immobilizer OR an approved mechanical gearbox lock (Construct Premium or Bearlock NRK) is mandatory.
and then it also has to be a "Bearlock Benelux" lock and otherwise it is not certified for the Netherlands and Belgium.
and this CAN only be a requirement of your insurer! .
just like you must have an approved chain lock with a motorcycle insurance policy.
and just like you can often get a discount on your insurance with a descam IF it is of a certain class and such.
thanks for the video Will. Sincerely, Hollandduck
I once lived in not so good neighborhood. My immobilizer solution was to grab the ECU with me, as it was conveniently located in passenger side wheel wall. (Saab 900) - I had it outside the upholstery connected with the cable connector only. If the thief would be equipped with Lucas made ECU, he likely would have offered the car better home than I managed to.

Good video bro, the guy seems like a genuine person, he has a very unique accent,,I hope u all Stay blessed!!!!
Thanks Anser 👍👍
These blokes are very passionate and informative about their product. Looks great and really well done👍🏼
Thanks Charlie, they are a great team 👍
@@WillsWhereabouts No worries mate, glad you are well. Keep it up 👍🏼
I can't believe you are only in your twentys , will you are an old soul sweety , you are such a great lad and you will find someone to share your adventures god bless you and I love every video you do can't wait for the next one x 😊
good chunky padlock on one of the foot controls
Back in the days of air cooled Beetle engine swaps there was a company that made engine to transmission locks, they were called “The Boll Lock Company” - great name.
My Subaru has a Thatcham Cat 1 alarm with a hidden keypad to prevent thefts. What about a hidden tap in the fuel line ? I put one on a Landy that I had years ago, it would run for a few minutes then stop.
Great vlog for security advise Will, so well done. Can't have enough theft deterrent in this day and age. Nice to hear you laff too. Take care 🙂 ❤
Thanks Sue 💜
That bearlock system sounds verry good,I'm going to tell my boss about it.
Maybe he will put it on his Mercedes Sprinter Cargo Van.
Great interesting video,looking forward to the next one !!!
It’s a great bit of kit!!
I just mailed my boss about that Bearlock system.
Maybe he will put it on,I don't now.
I will mail you about it when I know more
Get a wheel barrow also Will to put all your keys in.
😆
I have had bearlock in van for over a year I have a video to go out bit we are waiting g a final go ahead from the guys.
Get a pedal box fitted Will cause your van can still be moved forward by pressing the clutch pedal 👍🏻

Hey Will great bit of kit nice guys too , they popped into our place and fitted one for a customer very impressed! 👌
Fantastic group of guys 👍👍
Another key to carry Will! You will look like a jailer with all those keys😂
😂😂
Hi mate, me again,,, so not only is a dog mans best friend he can also be a form of security to, 😂😂 until the next one
I like that you are keeping with your theme, but also tied it in with the theme of the vlog! 👍😂
Seem like a cracking bunch of blokes and looks a good bit of kit too
👍👍
Just started watching this channel today and I’m enjoying it 👏👏❤️you deserve 1m subs🙄❤️😩
Thank you 😊
its a great idea and a good way to share out as well Will! but your thinking safety and keeping ya van secure too, Keep it up and see ya in the next vid mate,

Thanks 👍👍
Love the look of the safety equipment, will defo be looking into those for my own van.
Great safety kit 👍👍
Great idea with this. I put deadlocks on my vans sliding door and rear doors and I’ve never had an issue with them
Wow those cars were reversing fast! They must've had that emobilser fitted!
Well done Will, glad sorting security,jez the van has come a long way from the empty vessel it was. Looking forward to your next adventure.
alway love you vids but what part of the Uk do we drive backwards at 30mph lol
0:58 Mr blue van ( oh no their stealing the van in reverse ) lol would not noticed only for that, such crisp video like always :-)
Anywhere south of Watford after 9pm judging by some of the clowns round here lol
What an awesome bunch of guys. Looks like a good job, well done.
Yes they are great! 👍👍
Get any stickers or such like?
Always think that something that makes it obvious to would be thieves that your vehicle will be a pain in the arse to nab, is a good thing
Yes, I don’t think discreet is what you want with something like this. I would rather someone doesn’t smash my windows to try before discovering this.
My Cossie had a brake pedal lock. You pushed the brake in and locked it
Brill Video Will, they sound a good set of lads
They really are! 👍
If you ever come thru West Dorset again I'd love u too give me a shout and id love to put a smile on ur face with my V10 r8 Spyder (was once owned by Gairth Bale ) .
I guess not then
Will, you are right. Reverse is normal. Weird is great, because normal sucks.
Bro, it seems that you've turned a corner, you seem well happy. I wanna see some more adventures lad!
You could also install a tracker as well and old smartphones make useful security cameras
Good thinking 👍🤘
Having more fun in your van life now when you start meeting up instead of solo ,good on ya lad, looking forward to the next one

You need to get up to East Yorkshire and then too the moors. Look near tibthorpe there is places out the back .which have been on tv many times etc
Loved this one!
Will brings out the funny in everyone 😂
Thanks Mike 👍😂
That is a great idea for the van will.
Thanks 😊
When you add any security to your vehicle, put stickers showing any potential threats not to bother. Otherwise they will try and you’re left repairing broken and smashed bits.

Hi Will,
Very interesting video with a top security system.
Also bonus seeing you mid week. 👍
Thanks Peter 😊
Be careful flashing the keys on camera, it's quite simple to grab a screenshot and copy a key from a single frame. I would change any lock you have shown the key for on camera.
Really good bit of kit getting that installed will. Do you mind if I ask how much it was ?

Hi Will, really looking forward to your next upload of your road trip and all of us viewers being introduced to the person that's really important to you 🙂..... Keep up the GREAT uploads and wish you well and have a great week. 🙂
Fun Vlog Will, very interesting! Theft Stop seems like a solid company....not in USA yet, but a huge market I bet.
Brilliant company with a great team who know their stuff!
How much was the bear lock to fit?
Love your mid week uploads
Thank you 🙏
Looks good kit. Makes it very difficult if you need to replace the seat though 🤦🏽♂️
I’m ok when out and about Will I have four German Shepherds who take care of my security issues haha
That’s a strong security team! 🐕🐕
Strong security team there 🐕🐕
Fantastic security system.
👍👍
If I were you I'd put a sticker near the gearstick telling people it's locked in reverse and can't be moved. Otherwise a thief might break it by pulling the gearstick about forcefully, breaking something and costing you money. Just a thought.
Nice video and extra security is better and really interesting what they do
Thanks Chris 👍
That is brilliant idea. Thank you for the info. I wonder if there’s a US company that does this.
Make some secret hiding spots for other items like loose change and emergency gear. ect.
Good idea 👍
@@WillsWhereabouts Just dont film and show us ;)
