If you look on landywatch there is tons of stuff, if you join you can get big discounts on lots of it. Especially
The sky tag tracker which I think is half price.

Yep. Think u r right re screwfix conduit. Had a look and a decent bolt cutter would have no issues.
Now running the +ve cable thru a metal tube could well be the way.
In the meantime - i will run the cable inside the cab - when i get the chance.
Meanwhile the alarm will be routed directly to the battery. When i can afford a twin set up i will run stuff to that. Padlock the battery box and make sure the angry tiger is kept hungry!

forget rerouting etc... leave it there so they can cut it, if it not there to cut they my have other ideas, you want them to have it there to cut but all systems to stay working if they do

Had a friend of mine point out that the disclock was useless on my 110, he pointed out that behind my steering wheel were the bolts holding it on, so basically undo the bolts and remove the steering wheel and disclock then just bolt another wheel on and away they go, never noticed.
Still leave it on for slowing down purposes but have now got a full Clifford alarm with all the extras like tilt sensors and duel zone proximity, anti hijack etc etc plus full central locking.
Much happier now.

Sounds like you have an aftermarket steering wheel fitted, I'd put a standard one back on then they won't be able to remove the wheel
How about a Poachers-trap type thing (Blank shot-gun shell, with a spring-loaded firing pin type cage araound it) in the cab?.....connected to the clutch pedal?. Would make a hell of a bang in the cab....
Just dont forget you fitted it!
EDIT
I see this approach has been covered earlier in the thread....

was talking to lad the other day and he had a valve type set up on his brakes / clutch and if you press the pedals they go flat to the floor and lock

This thread is doing nothing for my paranoia.

Just so long as it makes you up your security and not be a soft target then a bit of paranoia is a good thing.

Just been thinking, I've got a theory as to how the cnuts are moving landy's apparently silently from a fred I read on here a bit since.
I'd like to ask, how many have been stolen uphill e.g. up a drive or up a cul de sac...
How many have been taken on a downward sloping road or street?

Appn...
It's a pet theory of mine based on a comment from a 1PW but, depending on whether there's any response from folks unfortunate enough to have had their landy's nicked, it might just be a theory...
On the other hand, my "theory" might just be the norm for landy thieves. I haven't done any internet research yet.
If my idea is reyt, a little bit of knowledge, £100 outlay and a tow vehicle, you could potentially have a landy away with very little noise, damage or suspicion.

Disclocks seem to be easily bypassed and basic, mechanical locks aren't hard as such to defeat...
As I said, its just a pet theory of mine but having not searched for how to steal a landy, I'm just working on a guess but I think a deterrent might be fairly cheap and simple.
I have been reading these posts and my thoughts are there are organisations that test and rate virtually every security product. There are I would say three areas you need to look at first is physically preventing them taking the vehicle second trying to stop them getting away with it and finally preventing them selling the vehicle. Just one word of warning I have been threatened with both a screw driver and car when trying to prevent a car being stolen be careful some of these people are ruthless.
