after my break in...i'm installing pain sirens =) what are those? its a siren that you put INSIDE the cabin of the car...but instead of a normal alert noise or whatever, it emits a VERY loud high pitched sound...wires up with your alarm. If anyone is gonna try to steal my shit again by smashing a window or sth...they will fucking earn their keep.  sorry just writing about this makes me angry again...
