Adding Shock Sensor to Factory Alarm
I came across a video by Tony Diaz on YT. He sells a shock sensor that work with our car's factory alarm. Ordering was easy and it came with an installaion video and instructions. BB installed it for $40 and now I have some added peace of mind. Its not "theft proof' but it is harder to steal/ vandalize. I recommend everyone check out this video.

Where to get the part?
Hey so....I know it's a few days old post but I'm interested in getting something like that. Is the product in question something that was developed by this tony guy or is it on sale at any major retailers? Do you have an Amazon link or anything that we might be able to use?

Off-street parking is too sensitive to dumpster truck / rig / roadsweepers's vibration.
Even loud-thumping car stereos emanating from passing vehicles will trigger it at nite.
Neighbors will complain especially if your hood has 3 different dumpster truck coming for different refuge 5-7am on same weekday morning.
Toyota dealerships do install this crap.
It's also very unsightly as there will be a 1" x 1/3" sensor protruding into your top-left of your windscreen at the driver's side.
Worst this sensor also serve a pivot point during windshield impact by large object/animals making it easier for your laminated glass to easily shatter, instead of surviving the collision unscathed.
In Bay Area, car burglars no longer steal wheels/steering/converter or break-in for valuables.
They just steal a towtruck & tow your whole car to Oakland/LA ports for direct shipping to Middle East/ South Americas / Afrikas / Central Asia / Eastern Europe, for immediate recondition-sale by filing-off & welding new VINs.
Your dealership / auto insurance employees sell your address to these carjackers who will scour the street at night.
TBH I strongly believe the towtruck drivers are involved as it takes loads of skill to latch anything onto any vehicles, especially in the dark.
They're so skillful the same towtruck pedestal can also be used to pry your garage door up, to steal your precious behind locked garage.
Any shock or any car or home alarm will be easily scanned & disabled by jamming all RF, using military-grade drone jammers made-in-Russia which can be easily procured from dark-web for <$1000.
Best keep your car keyfob inside Faraday pouch.
Lexus, Beemer, Audi are their fav.
Only ppl who dun need to worry are EV owners.
Reason: no infrastructure for fast-charge / office-charging - so there's no demand
And some of these 3rd world countries still use smaller boats to bring stolen goods which only fit mid-size sedan, to their final sale-destination.
So this is also why large SUV/MPV & full-sized sedans are spared.
