Another reason to get black jaxx installed, read this a while back when i had the type-r. Having black jaxx installed does give you some peice of mine that even if your car is hi-jacked that you can recover it from the scene youself.

Anybody whos even a little concerned about car jackin can could do a lot worse than spend £180-£160 on this device. Contact S.I.M (sound in motiom) for more details.

The moral of the story is never ever use your rear mirror!

fast bloke

What if the note says "Caution we have clamped your passenger side wheel for parking in two spaces"?

bekee
