I did this mod so nobody can do the wire hanger trick on me :D Also it gives added security so when i enable the alarm the LED's flash red. So guys what you think. Thanks for looking.

looks good and if it aids security then it can't be bad!

Shorten'd door pins is a common mod...

THOUGH, the red led isnt really. You said you wired it to the alarm - is it a standard alarm you have - or did you get one fitted?

If its standard - where have you connected the leds?

Just usefully questions incase anyone wants to add the LEDs to there polo!

if the pins are low enough you cant get a grip on them to pull them up and unlock the door!

I got a mate of mine to wire the LED's to the aftermarket alarm that came with the car. Im not sure about the wires he hooked them up to.

The wire hanger trick is used by thieves to pop up the door pins to unlock the car door. It now carnt be done to me because ive took the pins out :)
