Alarm Installation

Hi, I want to install a flame thrower alarm on my gemini. I was just wondering if anyone here has done it and if so was it hard?
Also I want to install a 9kg gas bottle for it instead of the standard 4kg bottle as I've heard it goes harder. Has anyone done this mod? How much does it cost
I heard from my friends sisters uncle that his second cousin in law set it up to run off straight oxygen instead of LPG but was wondering if anyone knows if thats safe?
Thanks Guys

i heard that my girlfriends nanna had one set up but she used two 4 kg bottles

as long axs you only use silicon and cable ties in the installation it is totally saf and legal

if you use a sprinkler set up you can make sure no one can get in

cheers

Yep, they do it in South Africa. Car-jackings are so out of control, you can buy a flame thrower thing that mounts to under the drivers side door. If someone runs up and tries to break in, you can flame them. ALthough if you kill them, you go to jail. Another interesting one also in South Africa is the installation of a capsicum spray just beneath the steering wheel, pointed towards the drivers face. If someone car-jacks you and you dont want to put up a fight and die. Let them take the car, and the capsicum spray will go off by the remote you have (like remote central locking, but more fun).

Well, the main problems with using such alarm devices as a flame thrower or a pepper spray hooked up to your vehicle alarm are that under the Crimes Act you would be the responsible party for any injuries and damages caused by said devices activating. This of course translates to at the bare minimum of massive civil liability, and worst case of a couple of decades in gaol.

That said, if you feel like doing it, please let me know where the hell you park so I don't park alongside yours and get my car scorched\set fire to or the like.
