Just wanted to bring this site to peoples attention, it has several different devices to protect your truck from theft and break in.

I just ordered a Punch Plug for my driver door since someone tried to break into it. I don't work for them in any kind of way, just sharing this.

Vehicle Security and Theft Prevention Devices

My lock was damaged from a screwdriver, The PunchPlug™ replaces the lock, removing the temptation to attack it!

12.95 shipped to my door! :party28:

Not to play devils advocate, because I do like the idea, but what happens if the battery dies in your key fob?

Replace the battery, or call someone like me, who will have it open faster than you can blink.

I use a viper alarm system anyways, charges via USB cable.

In fact, my key hole was like this when I bought the truck, so I haven't used the key lock once. It seems cheaper and safer to go this route then order a new lock mechanism.

I am going to get a remote start/alarm.

Good luck, im still getting all the bugs worked out on my viper. Stupid led tail lights are sending the system errors right now, might have to dump the led tails and put stockers back in.

Jimmi Jammer is a great investment to do as going under the handle is one of the common break in methods that i have read on the forum(s)
I never got one but my truck had been broken in twice and both methods were going under the handle.

Reason why i ended up shaving the handles off.

Update: I installed this a week ago, here it is installed. However my door handle still pulls away from the door since the metal is tweaked underneath. Any ideas? Im thinking maybe some trim or molding, it would look out of place though is my only worry.
