Default Re: Efficient ways of making a car unstealable?

Deck the car out with undercover police styled antennas, install a MDT in the dash, dark tint, a high vis vest in the back seat with "Police" written on it, along with a big blue folder, and put a fake 'police vehicle' laminated A4 paper on the dash while parked. Probably only works on a vehicle police normally use.

While I was travelling in Eastern Europe I spent the day with a girl I had met in the hostel. We relied on each other to take pictures with our own cameras. Mine was a crappy P&S item while hers was a fancy SLR that was kept in an inconspicuous backpack.

When she handed me her camera it was covered in white marking tape / electrical tape and black plastic. When I asked her what happened to her camera (I assumed it had been dropped several times) she replied that in actual fact the camera is perfectly fine with not a scratch on it, the tape was there to just make it look like it's been dropped and cracked, i.e. to make it unattractive to would be thieves.

I thought that was quite clever actually!
