There are a number of devices on the market today designed to protect your car from theft and vandalism. Many insurance companies will only offer you a discount on your policy if you have an active or passive disabling alarm system or alarm-only system. Added features such as ignition "kill" switches and hood & wheel locks, are additional ways to lower your risk for auto theft and vandalism. Most of the major insurance companies offer a discount for having these anti-theft devices installed in your vehicle.
