What Mods Have You Done?

I have been getting some PMs about the wheel locks on my rims, I thought I would share a photo. They are all oem. It's crazy I know, but about a month ago I came out to my 3IS at 3:00AM with my alarm going off, my two pager Viper alerted me to a sensor. I found a jack and some tools on the road next to a back rim. My tilt sensor payed for itself that night!
So you have five locks on each of your wheels; an additional $400 total, $100 per wheel?

Not really, I picked them up on ebay for about $30 for each set times four about $120. If they really want my rims, they will have to earn it!

if he/she was smart enough, they should have just run the same 4 lock nut and key on a single rim and with 1 regular nut. then they know that key belongs to that side/rim, and then do that with the other 3 wheels..and they could have saved money on one set.

I have never had a security system, but I am interested. Does the Viper system you have replace the Lexus keyless entry and ignition system? Of do you carry 2 fobs with you...one to disarm the alarm (and receive notifications) and your lexus key for entry and starting?
Thanks.
Thanks.
