Hi folks, had my better half's 2006 RX 400h stolen this morning - they broke into her workplace, found where she kept her bag, stole the bag, then went to the public carpark nearby, and stole the car. This solved the problem of dealing with the stoplock pro elite lock I got for her, and the faraday storage for the car keys. They were also smart enough to either turn off or faraday cage her phone so there's nothing to ping. - it also tells you they knew which bag to get from the staff room.
She loved her RX, so I'm thinking of getting another RX [old one again - think 2008 to 2011'ish but willing to go more recent if required to find a compatible immobiliser], if this RX isn't recovered [which given how professionally this was done are good odds it won't be].
[Car's been found now]
I've searched around the forums, and read many of the threads on immobilisers - I had not considered fitting one before because the car wasn't listed as compatible for Ghost or Pandora [that I could find].
If anyone's fitted an aftermarket immobiliser on an old RX 400h/450h I'd love to hear your experience and any problems you've had. My mind is kinda bent on having an immobiliser and a tracker system installed on the next car, as a gift for the next "pro" that tries this scheme.
For anyone wondering whereabout this was, this was Newcastle area.
Feel free to PM me about this if you'd prefer to.
UPDATE: Car's been found [success!]. Still looking for community input but ideally suited for a 2006'ish RX 400h.
