Title says it all - trying to San Antonio proof my truck since I'll actually be driving this one into town a bit. I know there is only so much that you can do (especially here - if they want it bad enough they will get it) but just wanted to get any recommendations/advice yall might have. Already installed an IGLA and went with an electronic bed cover (I'm awful about manually locking bed covers). For the horn I'm leaning towards adding a 2nd into the system but curious if there is any kind of brackets/shielding for the stock location? Would still go with the 2nd but thinking some kind of visible deterrent on the stock one/wiring might give one or two of them second thoughts and keep them from popping the lock or busting the window. Tailgate - mostly seeing stuff about the McGard lock but curious if there is anything better out there. Any other areas to look at too? Thanks!

If its a 2023 or newer truck and you have the auto-close tailgate... I would recommend getting the AllGuard Kit w/ BMC anti-theft plate kit. This kit includes the HingeGuard (replaces the stock fastener on your pass side hinge with a proprietary fastener - No need for a McGard-type device) and has the BMC anti-theft plate which not only protects your hood latch like our HoodGuard but its also large enough to protect the horns allowing them to remain in the stock location.

If you dont have the auto-close tailgate (read: you dont have a fastener on your pass side hinge) then look at our AllGuard kit and consider adding the BMC Anti-theft plate to protect your horn. Also consider getting the McGard device to protect your tailgate.

If you have a 17-22 SD look at our AllGuard kit. Nothing in this kit protects your horn though. Additional measures would need to be taken. Also consider getting the McGard device to protect your tailgate.

You can also a la carte things if you'd like. Here's a link to our security product line: https://omahabravodesigns.com/collections/all-products

Happy to answer any questions.
 
Awesome - thanks everyone! Sounds like I need to check out omahabravo :ROFLMAO:


Ha knew the trunk monkey would show up. Almost did a preemptive strike but figured would let someone else have the fun.

i've busier than a one-legged man so i havent updated my inventory for blemished items.

I have a few LightGuard blems and a few TailGuard blems. All are aesthetic blemishes only: full function just not full price.

Get u an I tag or something similar to hide in/on your rig!! I would suggest plugging your driver side key hole and pulling your lock rods as well.
