    Car Security

    I'm trying to secure my 96 Cherokee (you know the kind where you slide hammer the ignition and away you go) and need advice on what system to go with. It's been a while since I've been familiar with car security systems so I have a bit of a learning curve here. What I'm looking for in a security system... 1) Goes off if the dome light comes on, in whatever form the system achieves it. I've been told some systems achieve this by sensing a drop in line voltage. 2) Some kind of hood security. Maybe in the form of a push pin or tilt switch. 3) Shock sensor 4) Some kind of start kill when it's armed 5) Encrypted transmission between remote and system 6) Blinking dash light 7) No loud quacking sound indicating it's armed...a blinking side light will do Not interested in remote start or lock, and a one way communication system would be good enough. Any questions or suggestions please? I'm all ears.

    In search of this retaining clip - w/ picture

    My mom has an '02 Ford Taurus that I installed a Metra dash panel radio conversion kit in so I could install the stereo deck she wanted. Because of the configuration of the dash panels you can't install your own radio unless you install something like this conversion kit first. The kit provided a new front panel but asked you to remove the panel retaining clips from the old panel and use it on the new installation. Those are the internal retaining clips you de-lock when you insert the U shaped removal tools. The old clips got misshapen and one broke. So now I can't get the panel to stay in and am looking to replace the clip. Anyone know where to get a clip that looks like this...
