A few ideas from the community.... I'll keep adding as new ideas are added.
-Starter Fuse Pull
-Hard-cut battery kill switch
-ODB Stoppers
- IGLA Alarm
Pull fuel pump relay.
I was thinking about pulling the fuse for the starter on mine but then I thought if they are watching you they will see you pop the hood and put 2 and 2 together but great idea
You should add the IGLA to your list!! Best security system for our camaros!
Faraday pouch for your key fob to prevent signals from being emitted and therefore stolen. Fuel starter relay killswitch. Use both for my truck. Plenty of GMC and Chevy trucks are being stolen right now as well in South Texas.
@@sergioduran3545 being installed as I’m typing this message.
The best thing you can do is take out the engine before you go to sleep and just install it in the morning 😂
😂😂😂
Even that they will prob just get a tow to cut it up and sell the parts
lol.. they can still tow it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
All I know is that bullets cost too much for warning shots now days!
Well, since they've run out of Hellcats and Scatpacks to steal😂 they moved on to Camaros....
No it's the other way, when the camera's are gone they might lower they tastes to a dodge
@@jimbradd2783I hate to tell you but anything with a push button start can be stolen easily
noooo
There are usually 2 types of comments when I see camaro anti theft threads. 1. Actual tips and 2. “I put mine in a garage so I don’t have to worry”. Please realize the latter is not always applicable (because 9/10 if the garage option was available the post wouldn’t be made) and some people simply don’t have access to a garage. Comments like, “just place it in a garage” is dismissive and unhelpful. Please refrain.
See my comments just posted and call. Thanks.
Haven’t seen too many “park in a garage comments”
You would think this should go without saying. But, we live in an increasingly selfish and self centered society.
I kept my 2023 ZL1 in a garage and it was stolen from a gas station in broad day light in Dallas. Friday December 1st at 1630.
Another reply is, if you can’t afford a garage then don’t buy a fucking high dollar Camaro😊
My 2022 2SS 1LE was stolen in November when I was at work in Downtown LA. It was never recovered. I’ll look for a ZL1 somewhere down the road. It blows but I’m glad I wasn’t hurt or killed. My life and the ones I loved are irreplaceable.
Same man, had my Camaro stolen out of a parking garage in February. I’m still waiting on my insurance and gap
You get your car stolen and you want another one?
Spoken like a true white collar techie.
Well I mean yeah hobbies aren't gonna die because of one thing like that that's what insurance is for @@TheRealCatof
@@tacticalluxx3749 I mean, I would get something less likely to get stolen.
Hey Lethal , my 16’ SS just got stolen two weeks ago from the front of my house. I live in Los Angeles county and when they found my car (in one piece thank god) but they found 4 Camaros asides mine. PLEASE I URGE ALL MY SS FRIENDS…. take care of your Camaros I wouldn’t want what happened to me ever happen to anyone else….Stay safe
I have a 14 that has fob with ignition key. Does yours have key to or just push to start? Ty
@@jameszaiger8892 the 6th gens have push start. From what I know, now I got kill switches on the battery and I’m planning on having a second one. But that’s only after I got it stolen. I own 80’s Toyotas and hondas and those have kill switches but it suck that now I gotta have my SS with the same security. And all these reports are coming out 3 weeks after it happened to me
Kill switch on fuel pump relay. No start or run function.
I have a 2014 SS 1LE and luckily I went for a keyed ignition. Thieves broke into my car and couldn’t get it started because no key and they couldn’t use the obd2 or start the car. Thieves use a snap on computer plugged into your odb port to start the wireless remote cars. The only thing I did is use an old club and a clutch pedal lock. Good luck getting a hacksaw behind my clutch pedal.
I have relocated my OBD (2022 2SS) and put in a dummy one. I also keep my keys in a faraday box. I plan on adding a kill switch to the ignition and fuel pump. I work in law enforcement and have done numerous reports on stolen Camaros, Chargers, Challengers, and Mustangs. I can say this. They don't steal the stick shifts, at least not nearly as much. I can only recall one getting taken, but the others all have had just broken windows and trims to get to neutral safety switch.
Glad to hear the manuals are less. Good idea for the faraday box, gonna steal that idea for me! Also be safe out there!
Glad I have a 6Spd MT
This is WRONG. Manuals DO GET STOLEN! Its NOT protection!!
Thank you officer for the tips stay safe out there
in the process of getting me a Zl1, glad i ran across this caz i only drive sticks
You can disable the proximity unlock/disarm from the key FOB by holding the lock/unlock button at the same time for 3 seconds *with the car off. It will then require a button press from the fob to disarm the car and prevent a relay attack. AFAIK anyway, maybe model year dependent.
I know at least the 23 and 24 model years have this 👍🏼
I was thinking if you kill the power to the receiver, nobody could start it.
Didn’t work on my 2018 SS.
This method disables the proximity signal between the key fob and car. It works on a '23 SS. The key fob is required to unlock the door & trunk. It seems to be permanent until re-enabled.
What does this mean. I don't understand. Please explain.
The IGLA alarm!! You don't need to disconnect the battery! Best security system for our camaros. In order to start the car you need to enter a pin code. Without that pin code car wont start 👌. It also protects your key fob signal from being duplicated/copied. Its definitely worth it! I have a it on my 2024 SS 1LE. Also added Drone Mobile which is a live gps tracker 👍
How much does this cost?
@@CJ2K around $1400
@@sergioduran3545 for installation and everything?
Thanks for the tip, my 2023 2ss got stolen yesterday haven't heard anything yet but I honestly don't think I'll get it back 😢
22 Camaro SS1le stolen from my house over a month ago and not found. Onstar GPS shows that it’s parked on my driveway. Not sure how they disabled this.
The only good thing, I still had 30k left on the loan, insurance is paying me 53k for the car plus 5k for all the taxes that I paid when purchased. So insurance will pay off the car and give me a 28k balance check.
But honestly, I would rather have my car than the money. But it sucks that you can’t have nice things without being worried about theft.
They unplug the OnStar fuse, it happen to me twice
Had my 19 ss 1le stolen from my house almost a month ago no recovery. The insurance is hopefully gunna take care of me. I do which i had my car bck instead.
got mine stolen friday march 1st. found it within hours due to having a tracker but forsure moving to a house with garage and installing a kill switch.
I have a 2015, what kind of tracker did you use?
@@christopherguevara3571 lojack, highly recommend
My friend spent about $1200 on a "kill switch alarm system" and added 3 additional GPS tracking devices (each a different company and app)🤣 I hope he's in the clear
I'd hope so.
Brake/clutch pedal locks are effective. Can't push the pedal down so it won't allow it to start.
I saw those on Amazon.
It’s very interesting because I remember around…10 years ago or so when the Gen 6 was soon to be released a lottttt of Gen 5 Camaros were stollen. ZL1s SS etc. Reason back then was the engines. Really does suck though because not everyone has the room or ability to store their vehicle in safe storage. Thank you for bringing up/allowing others to share some ideas for everyone Mat!
You broth up AMSOIL Products, that's what I have used for my 2019 Camaro ever since I purchased the car. I like the idea of the kill switch. I'll keep that In mind thanks. always watch your channel. Have a nice and blessed day. Take care
Thanks for posting this topic, Lethal.
My SS got stolen in December. Found it 2 days later with lo jack. They only got the black tail lights and broke the window. Ripped out the onstar.
They’re stealing the SS sedans as well. The day I didn’t put the SS in the garage they almost got it but my neighbor came out and they took off.
Glad to hear they got scared off.
Man that was supposed to be the ultimate sleeper car..... And they are targetting it :(
About two months ago Idk if someone was trying to go for my 20' SS but was walking out of the gym and saw someone that looked to be maybe messing with my front drivers side door; yelled at them as i was exiting the gym and ever since then I have been on alert. Key is always in a faraday pouch at home and kill switch has been installed.
Great video. I have a 2019 2ss with the performance package. it's an eye catcher everywhere I go. I always bring down my insurance and regulations card and put them on my carry bag just in case my car was to get stolen they wont have any of my info. I also use a brake club. And I also have the gap ins. But remember, guys dont have anything with ur info in ur car. It sucks that we have to do a lot to keep our stuff safe. But at least they won't ur info. I do this every day.
Don’t use the fob. Use the silver button to unlock. Set up Camaro to auto lock when you walk away and your key fob is not detected. It’s in the settings menu.
Does not matter dude! Sure it helps of they are trying to grab the signal but, otherwise, you need some type of alarm and or something to kill the ignition.
@@erroljones1684 yeah of course why not. For a pro, if someone really wants your car then it’s gone. All we can do is make it as hard to take as possible.
@SudeepC1973 I get that. What you suggested is a great start, but you definitely need layers. Grabbing the signal is not the most common way theives are stealing these cars.
@@erroljones1684 yeah. I am going to add another layer. OnStar. Pay the $20 bucks a month for the theft prevention package. That will enough for me without diving too deep into that rabbit hole. Lastly, I have ‘Out of site, out of mind.’ Good ol’ parking inside a garage.
I never leave the car out of my sight. It’s garaged 24/7 and I only take it to cruise nights or car shows !
Same, it’s not my daily and it’s a garage queen but still nervous af 😒😑
@@Davidzl1one I have it insured with Hagerty insurance as I only put roughly 500 miles a year on it
@@JIMFED63 I’ll look into it, mine gets driven on rare occasions as I like it to be 🙏🏻
I worry that someone at a car show will scan the fob and follow me home to steal it later.
@@IROC-ZL1 these are trying times for these cars and their owners, just got to keep faith
Maybe placing the FOB in a Faraday bag to block any device signals from reading it.
I think that is a good trick.
i hav the box
i have a custom machined aluminum micro tool box upstairs I lock my fob in every night. 17 GT350 in an apartment complex in socal.
Just ordered two Faraday pouches and the box should arrive tomorrow it amazes me that 14 and 16 year olds are out smarting the engineers at GM maybe it's time for someone at GM with some intelligence to design a smart key fob that can be turned off with a press of button like Mercedes-Benz just came out with.
I have the pouch. This is more about broken window. Access OBD with $415 Amazon Key generator and drive off. See my comments and Call GM Chevy request security update fix NOW.
Installing the Kill switch myself tomorrow. Plus I’ll be using a club to help prevent my window from getting broken in to. Plus I park my car in the garage.
My 23 2SS was stolen and was found 3 hours later it was minor interior damages. They always took off my wrap on most panels. It was in the dealer for 2 months. I installed Compustar alarm system. Hopefully it works and doesn’t happen again!
IGLA security system is the best option on the market! Just got mine installed and love it! Correct security code must be put in before car will start. Security code uses buttons in your car!
Thanks man for the tips I’m getting my Camaro RS this week shipped to my house was searching for how to protect my car from theft here in Vegas.
I got kill switch for the ignition and one for the fuel pump and a solid steal break paddle lock good luck trying to find the kill switches even if you get the break lock off.
How do ya avoid the engine light from the fuel pump switch
I just installed a tracker on my SS and so far I like the way it works. I get notified even when I just unlock my car and open door. It does require a subscription but it’s well worth some peace of mind!
What tracker do you have ?
I have an Air Tag hidden in my interior. I always have my car garaged. I keep the key fobs in a drawer as well.
That will help you track it, but not stop it being stolen.
@@Lethalgarageit’s usually never out of my sight for long
Air tag has a short range
@@gns4838nah I’ve seen them around the world
AirTag is nice but unfortunately due to privacy and other reasons anyone with an iPhone (potential thief) will be alerted if the AirTag is following them and they can locate the AirTag from their own phone with the U1 chip on newer iPhones as well as make the Air Tag play a noise from their iPhone.
Some people have stripped the speaker from the AirTag but it still functions for finding with the U1 chip, aftermarket AirTag compatible devices don’t have the U1 chip but still come with a speaker.
I’ve been running an inexpensive GPS unit that has a starter interrupt feature. Install is pretty straightforward, and the interface includes some nice features like geofencing, speed and direction. If they happen to get around the starter interrupt, I’ll know where my ride is right away.
Interrupt the starter, either in the fuse box or at the starter. Or some other process that is required to start, interrupt the fuel pump.
pretty sure the camaros are being targeted now as they are NO LONGER being made. Hence parts will start to become higher sought after, and prices go up
We have a few years before parts become hard to find.
Aren't Cadillac parts interchangeable?
@@chadaustin8914the cts v’s and zl1 yes
Back in the day Trans Am’s were the number 1 stolen car…(long time ago!) I use to take my fuse out every night that went to my fuel pump. It sucked but was worth it.
Guys please don’t pay for on star it is a waste of money. They stole my car I heard it turn on called them within 5 minutes to disable the car and they have already disabled it all they had to do was pull out a fuse
Electronic shift locker. Can't move from park unless you push and hold a hidden button
Good shit, our FedEx truck uses that. Works wonders😂
Good vid very relevant and informative. Regarding cloning the smart key, have heard wrapping the key in tin foil or storing it in a metal container can prevent that.
Faraday cage boxes also stop the duplicators, i store my keys in one, held the box right next to the car, wouldnt open, wouldnt start. Then added a kill switch to the fuel system to stop the fuel pump.
I lost my 2018 SS on february 8th 2023 I was so shock it was gone the day it got stolen and they still didn't find it yet but good thing I have gap insurance
Ghost switch and relay to bypass fuel pump and or starter will thwart a theif even if you give them the key/fob. There is no need for a full battery disconnect.
I am surprised not many know about a Faraday bag for the fob when you are at home. Using a Faraday case in conjunction with a Ravelco plug will definitely help if parked outside or at a hotel etc. Also if you hide an Apple airtag in the car make sure you open it and disconnect the speaker so it cannot be found by the thieves when it makes the connected/disconnected/out of range audio alert.
I have a 5gen ZL1 garaged! But I Also have a hidden tracker in my ride linked to my cell when I need it to be away for service to make sure there is NO joy riding when I can't be there! So there is that option if your cell phone provider has it available? The only down fall, the tracker is charged and is good up to 5 days before needing a full charge✌
Just take the starter fuse out if you don’t have a garage or if you’re out for the day trip or what ever.
That's a good trick.
@@Lethalgarage actually it’s the starter relay K10. U can’t miss it. It will not prevent them towing your vehicle but they will not be able to start the vehicle 100%.
@@frankensteincamaro Until they replace the fuse.......
@@gbass7328 just for you take one of your tires off. 😂😂
I also take my starter relay out. No car thief is walking around with relays in their pocket
Bought a rapid blue zl1 new last year. Had it stolen in Jan. I was lucky to be able to find it a mile from my house. Insurance took care of the damages. I live in an apt complex so I started storing it in a warehouse where they keep boats, RVs and some vehicles. Worth the price to not have the anxiety of my car being stolen.
OBD Block, like an aluminum 'VTT “OBD-LOCK” ODB port locking tool'
Basically, the relay attacks from the keys are still possible. But since most people are using faraday cages/pouches and how they steal it from crowded parking lots is they are fairly easily programming a new key and they don't need an existing one with high end scanning/programming tools, hence why windows are getting smashed to access the port.
Someone on the Facebook groups had an attempt made twice on their ZL1 in their apartment lot, both times were deterred to their killswitch
Use a RFID blocker box or pouch blocks the key connection to the car might be other ways to get around it but I do that to block the key connection
Trackhawk GPS kill switch. Mine works wonders. Also bought a $20 key bag from EBay that blocks signal
Easiest way is to pull starter relay or ecu relay...or both...no clock or window resetting
You guys will have to do like the hellcat guys. get the IGLA alarm. Doesn’t allow the cars keys to be duplicated and doesn’t allow it to move without the IGLA fob or PIN code. From owning a hellcat honestly that is the best bet. The ravelco is another, but you lose remote start. Those two are the only options to stop theft short of them having a tow truck. Even if they steal it on a tow truck the car is a brick and only good for parts at that point. The kill switches, AirTags, all that other stuff doesn’t work.
Years ago on my trucks ('90s-early 2000's) I would pull the fuel pump fuse, but they were easily accessible, I don't know how easy they are to get to on the new ones.
Remove the fuse 30amp. First Purple switch above the black relay that says GM on the right lower hand side of the box. That’s the starter fuse. Or install a Revelco Killswitch.
I have new 2024 2SS Camaro that I ordered from my Chevy dealer last year. I keep it parked in my secluded car 🚗 port . In addition I use a heavy duty club lock 🔐 attached to the steering wheel. My dealer recommended this to discourage auto theft. Let me know what you think about the club as an anti theft device. Thanks for sharing your video.
It’s not a bad device
I also have the club as well when I got to the gym or go out to eat etc- its not theft PROOF but a deterrant that will slow most down (they'll need a drill or saw to get around it) which would stop most idiot thieves
Igla security system. Expensive, but so are our cars. Will not start without the correct PIN input. Also has a car jacking mode which will shut down the car without the same PIN entry.
I literally just got my 2021 ss 1le stolen from my home a couple of days ago. Broke my passenger window out. Fortunately, within 2 days of reporting, it stolen it was recovered. I was told nothing significant other than the window was damaged. However I've yet to see the extent of the damage myself. My car is currently in the impound awaiting to be taken to my local repair shop. I'm definitely going all out on security when I get it back. If it happened to me it can happen to anybody so be careful out there.
Yep same here brotha window was broke but unfortunately had no tracker so it was gone for weeks. Get that satellite tracker and a kill switch brotha
Wonder if the + cable running to the starter itself could use a hi amp. disconnect, that would keep all the electronics hot, but car will not start. Short of flatbedding the car off....
Fuel pump cutoff.
Easy latching circuit. Engage before starting.
As far as I’ve seen this is a big issue with push to start vehicles in general. Keep your keys somewhere deeper in your house/apartment. Maybe even in a rfid case.
Old school steering wheel/brake pedal locking bar adds theft time and thief may move on to easier target.
Hack saw takes less than 20 seconds to cut through the steering wheel and they can easily slip off any aftermarket wheel to brake pedal/ wheel to window club lock. Had it happen to my truck 15 years ago. Detachable steering wheel with a hub lock plate is better (for older cars without airbags) with a Ravelco plug and a Faraday bag for the newer vehicles.
My 2ss custum build from the factory was stolen last year. Car only had Vin # changed when found.
They sell key fob case covers on Amazon that blocks the signal for $10. I just bought one after learning about this information.
Do an after-market kill switch and tracker.
What about a fuel pump kill switch... They might get down the road, but they wont get to their destination to strip it. Not sure why they haven't added a pin code like a phone unlock after you get in the car that will unlock the ECU.
Using a faraday box and faraday pouch to block the RF signal from the key fob it actually does work and the camaro is parked in the garage.
I have air suspension installed. I air out, then take the controller with me, and there's a switch that kills the fuses that start both of the compressors. It takes 10 seconds to flip the hidden switch and unplug the controller. The controller fits in my Faraday pouch with my key fob and wallet.
A thief can't steal a car, cat convertor, or wheels if it's laying frame. I also have the air suspension components bolted down under a vented enclosed box to make it harder to steal my airlift management.
I'm looking to install a fuel pump kill switch next. The nice thing about that method is the thief won't know if my car just won't turn over or if there is a kill switch, and it makes a lot of noise. Also, it wont kill all the power and reset everything.
I think a kill switch would be the way to go. You can have it disconnect the ign. Or starter solenoid or both but definitely hide the switch.
Faraday bag for all key FOB’s and secondary secreted tracking device for my C8 Z06.
Thinking about installing a Killswitch(s) in mine… I know for sure that a manual seems to be a deterrent for thieves
is there a way to put a kill switch to the starter? maybe a boot as well.
This is happening big time with GMC AT4's..... in the Houston area, about 1500 plus, this year alone. Just a heads up
For street takeovers as well
This sucks. I just got the 2ss that I've been waiting for last month. Im already worried about someone vandalizing it or something like that but I didn't know it was this bad . What about a aftermarket alarm system? Do you think it would do any good? 🤞
My 2SS 1LE was stolen on the 26th of January. It was retrieved 3 days later in Compton. Just 10 miles away from me. They used a reprogramming attack. Apparently the tool to do that is readily available.
Was the car damaged or stripped?
Did they find it with on star
@@Lethalgarage Not really. The stock wheels were stolen and the passenger side mirror was broken off. The moron actually put different wheels on the car so they could drive it around.
@@Jeking84 No. I bought Theft Patrol when I bought the car. That works. They found the car and called the cops. Funny thing, while I was on the phone with Theft Patrol, they found the car instantly, OnStar called me and said they couldn’t find it. The thief took the OnStar module out of the car thinking it was the tracker. All that did was totally deactivate the car. Now I am waiting for a new module so I can finally drive my car again.
Crazy, glad you got it back. Kill switches now, move, garage it etc.
Or look up camaro almost gone in 60 sec. The guy in the video just installed some sort of kill switch that didnt kill the main power. But was able to keep them from starting and stealing it.
@chrisfix used the fuel pump relay. Was planning on doing that.
Has anyone used the Mobillistics intelligent relay? You replace either the starter or fuel pump relay, and it has a remote shutoff to immobilize the car.
Definitely an easy to add layer of defense. Igla, Ravelco, lots of good options.
I have a 5th gen ss you need a Key to start my car no key fob. They could steal my key fob signal to get into my car but how would you start it without a key.
I have a 2010 SS2. Key Start and I have a RF sleeve that the fob is in. Blocks any signal duplication.
Lethal I just went to my garage and tried it out my 2019 Camaro holding both the open and lock buttons for 3 seconds and was surprised it actually worked my lights flash three times and I couldn't open my door Try yours and please let us know if your key fob turns off too!!
I was trying to do this yesterday on my 2017. Not sure if something needs to be enabled in vehicle settings. Mine did nothing, ss 1le
Ravelco disables the starter and other necessary systems so that not even Onstar can start the car without the Revelco key in the car. And the best part is the battery doesn't have to be disconnected.
I'm thinking about adding like 3 air tags in spots hard to get to. 1 would be still there even if they strip it.
I put in AirTag and it is how I got the car back the second time it was stolen. The only draw back to the air tag is if the thieves have an iPhone it’s going to alert them that it’s in the car with them
@@rods814 true that. I just bought 4 Samsung smart tags. Need to have Samsung only haha. Maybe a mix of both?
when i had my zl1 , i installed ravelco kill switch.
How much was it and did they do a professional job? I don't want some 18 yo hack cutting a bunch of wires in my car.
I dont really need the wireless ability to start and stop the car. This isn't my daily. Would it help if I only used the mechanical key that is built into the key fob? Is there even a way to achieve this?
I had 4 break ins on my 2019 2ss since November last year, kill switch and steering wheel lock saved it from being stolen just minor dents and broken windows now it’s a garage queen I don’t daily it no more
Sheesh bro, where you from?
Hi lethal do you plan on making any vids on your sixth gen Camaro because its been a while since you've posted it.
Of course! I just started posting again.
I can't start my Camaro when the Hood is open and the engine stop when i pop the hood. Could hide a Killswitch using the same Actuator. Whats your opinion on that option?
Fortunately i live in Germany so Camaros being stolen is not a real issue as they rather go for the luxury cars. Of course im still using multiple other methods to protect my baby.
I have the 2018 ZL1 1LE, and would it be best to just isolate the starter circuit, thus still keeping all power to everything else? Thus using a kill switch to power a 12VDC high power contactor/relay to the main hot wire to the starter.
Find your "Electronic Fuel System (EFS) Relay under the hood on the switch board, and take it out and keep inside the house or with you.
They can't start the car. Keep the battery plugged in as is. Simply.
Damn Matt!! How you gonna show my 2022 Black ZL1 that got stolen last May 2nd, of 2022 crashed in the ditch RIGHT OFF THE BAT!! That's brutal!😭😭 🤣🤣...P.S.:TRUE STORY! . I have the article and picture still on my phone, my dealership called the Brighton County Sheriff's department the next day and confirmed that car in the ditch was MY VIN for the car I ordered. 😭😭😭. All is good though. Got a 2023 at Employee Pricing so ended up paying less for my '23 than I would have for the '22. 🙌🙌🙌👍
I thought this was an unsold car, man sorry that happened to you.
@Lethalgarage ah man, it's all good..I'm just giving you a hard time! 👍😁. It unfortunately was indeed my car, it was featured on The Drive Inside's channel after it happened. I was devastated when I received the news but it all worked out in the end so that's all that matters 👍👍😁😁
As a side question though: I saw/read this on another comment section but is there something MORE secure about just using the silver button on the door handle to lock/unlock instead of using the key fob since the key fob sends a signal???
I mean, it doesn't really matter if no one is around. But technically, yes if someone is in a car near by when you use your key, that can allow them to clone it.
@@Lethalgarage OK, good to know 👍. Thanks! 🙏👍
Definately use a faraday pouch or box. I stick my camaro fob in a pouch whenever its in the garage
Might have to start a Camaro Watch
Throw your key fop into a ezypass rfid sleeve. They are free on request if you have ezpass.
Lethal , gotta question have you heard or / have had a problem with your interior door knob chrome silver coating coming apart???
Pedel commander from Solar has a velet mode 5 mph Bluetooth sounds real good
I have a 5th gen ss.. are they targeting 6th mostly because of the Keyless start?
If you can afford an IGLA system i highly recomend it.
Looks like we are going to have too.
How much?
@@davidgledhilljr711200 to 1400
I had my ZL! stolen from my performance shop. I recently installed the compustar T13 as an additional security measure, it completely blocks the starter, even if you have the actual camaro remote or if you duplicate the key fob, you still cant start it without disarming the compustar. It also has GPS tracking, 2-way remote, and drone LTE app that notifies you wherever you are in the country. Check em out....The IGLA is also another pin-system option but it doesnt alert you if a tow truck grabs it and it has no GPS. The only reason my car was recovered is, the new mcleod clutch had not been bled, so they couldnt drive it, found it with the clutch on the floor.
At the ignition switch, is there a way to cut the starter wire and add a relay to it? Just kill the relay somehow whenever you exit and activate when you return?
Compustar has a starter kill. If you get it make sure you have an authorized dealer do the pro install.
