Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one Still available from the dealer. At least the later version that says "vehicle and radio anti-theft systems" Same decal just has the extra "radio" in it. |

Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one COOL.............*BUMP* for pics |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one 1 Attachment(s) Here ya go buddy, it's a little wore out but this is what came on my 92 |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one Here's a sharp one from my '89 (same year). PM me and I'll send you a hi-res version (3072 x 979). http://memimage.cardomain.com/member...8_358_full.jpg |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one So what is the story on the system? I don't believe it was available in 88 - that is unless one considers an ignition lock a theft system. |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one its the VATS key, the key with the chip in it BTW ,AsphaltAssalter & Iroctopless :thanks: |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one GTA's starting in 1988 had VATS, and ALL other F-bodies starting in 1989 had the VATS... I have considered adding it to my Yellow car but not gone to far with it... John |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one My '91 Z28 also has the VIN etched into the rear glass. That may have been done by the dealership though. Don't recall exactly now. Bill |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one The etching of the windows is a Sales gimmick thats suposed to reduce theft... In reality I think all it does is cost the consumer money, there is no way to actually tell that doing that reduces theft. When I bought my rainier the dealer tried pushing it on me to have the antitheft things placed on the car... Ultimately I guess they could point to statisitcs but if I was a thief I would not go around inspecting the windows before I stole a car... THe DECALS on the windows however may help as it would indicate to any would be thief that this car may be more difficult to steal than the one next to it. :2cents: John |

Not a salesperson tack-on. You, are adding an opinion:blah: . Call your :2cents: , raise you a dollar.:cool: P.S.: The etching came with an additional window decal. Bill |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one When i bought my iroc in 1985 my insurance company (AAA) etched all my windows and t-tops free of charge and then reduced my premium by a small percentage. |
Re: WTB, GM antitheft decals or a pic of one As John mentioned, some 1988 GTAs came with VATS (not all) and had the above decal affixed to both side windows at the bottom above the weatherstrip. GTAs also had a matching radio anti-theft decal as well, as the cars featured the Delco-Loc radio system. |
