Angry Theft

What are you fellow Lightning owners doing to keep your headlights and doorhandle assemblies from being stolen and popped open. Here in Houston Texas this seems to be a growing problem as I found out Friday at lunch time in broad daylight my headlights stolen - tire popped- doorhandle assembly popped open from the bottom. I heard from a source that the Fords do not like aftermarket alarms due to the PATS System......

Thanks

Damn, that sucks. Tailgate handle and tail light assemblies could be protected by a locking hard tonneau cover. Not sure how the door handle and headlight assemblies can be protected.

Theft

The locking hard tonneau cover and tailgate was what saved my tail lights or they would be gone.........

Thanks

Thumbs up

Hey svtlightning01,
I have been using a CODE-ALARM for over a year. I got the one with remote start so I can warm up my engine before I stomp on it. The shop had to take the PATS module out of the key and place it in the dash. Any good alarm shop should be able to take care of you. Hope this helps!
