Good post Jamie, I have a slight bend in the back door prior to me buying the van.

You could also consider a van vault for sticking the expensive stuff in.

Mine has the factory fitted alarm.......I'm still paranoid about getting done though.

Could try going down the South African route...... then again we have that annoying little thing here called human rights!

I have these types of locks on the side & back door

Loom protectors on rear doors & Cobra alarm with 2 bright flashing LED's rigged to air horns.

I've been done before. Never again!

hi gus ive seen these type of locks can you fit yourself mate or is it a garage job?

 

[Bubblecraft]

I do everything myself lol. Dead easy mate. Tbh, you need to buy the bolts, nuts, washers etc separate & they cost more than the damn locks but worth it in the end. I just painted mine to blend in with the van

on my van I have a "pager" alarm system from Clifford..........it cost about a grand..............

But, the fob on my keys will chirp the alarm if the van is in trouble.........(up to 2 miles!!!!!!!)......

here is a link for the UK version.......I imported mine from the US........you could not get them here at the time.........
