Picking up my TRX in the morning

Bro what.

I know. Countless posts here and everywhere about how effective that is

Congrats! I must have missed something, are these shipping out with bfg’s now instead of the Goodyears? If that’s the case, totally worth it!

I got 37 BFG put on mines at the dealer

Are those the raptor/skinny C ranges or something meatier?

Not sure I just told dealer only way I would do 37 is if I didn’t need a lift and they found those

If the truck feels top-heavy swap out for a beefier range like D. The c-range 37s are super narrow, which is why they fit on the Raptor 37/Raptor R without any mods.

Ok, it doesn’t seem too heavy at all

And that will stop absolutely nothing. They don’t look for the switch. They pop the push to start out and reconnect the red wires back together, make a key and leave. Please get real protection.

That assumes the kill switch is wired into the push-to-start circuit. A properly installed kill switch can interrupt a critical circuit elsewhere in the vehicle, with the relay and wiring completely concealed. Pulling the start button, reconnecting the red wires, and programming a key won’t bypass it. The truck still won’t start.

The thief still has to diagnose which critical circuit has been disabled, locate a concealed interruption in the vehicle, and defeat it, all while standing there with a dead truck which gives an owner more time to react.

There are no “critical circuits” you can cut that won’t give a check engine but 2 or 3, each of which are obvious. No power to the button is one, no crank signal to the starter is 2. Still will be paying for new keys to be programmed in “if” it fooled them. Thats like buying a nice expensive house and duct taping your windows closed thinking thats going to stop a break in. You do you though. I will do it correctly

You're assuming every kill switch is a simple no power to the button or no crank setup. It isn't. Finding the switch or pulling the start button doesn't tell you where the actual interruption is.

Could a knowledgeable thief eventually diagnose and bypass it? Sure. But that's the entire point: turn a quick key-programming theft into electrical troubleshooting on a truck that won't run. That's a long way from “duct taping the windows.”

I also remember you being pretty positive about IGLA before, so I'm curious what changed your view and led you to SPYNEX. If there are specific technical differences that make SPYNEX more effective against current TRX theft methods, I'd genuinely be interested in hearing them.

What other options are there if IGLA is apparently on its way out for whatever reason? In addition, no spynex installers in my area? Also, are these systems 100% effective when it comes to the whole key immobilizer/key cloning situation going on or whatever trend these fucks have going?

SPYNEX is his #1 go to now and I would like to hear more.

If you are in NY and would travel to NJ for install, this shop is the awesome at car audio/security.

There is a difference when it comes to fine Mobile and Home Audio from Unexpected Creations and we have 20+ years of sales and professional installation experience to prove it. MOBILE AUDIO

Lots of info here on it:

New product, better security features, SPYNEX

As most of you know I am no longer with IGLA, long story as to what got me to this point so will just stick to the details. IGLA is still a good viable option, I have been installing it and then was a distributor for many years and nothing changed. App was still garbage and we wouldn’t even...

I have IGLA and Compustar on my TRX. I have no plans to change to something else unless one of them fails.

Been asked answered here many times on here as well as many other pages. Far easier to use, app is fantastic and we are adding more and more. Testing a new added feature today actually. The parent company is far better as well. Our chipsets are FAST and made in the USA not china like IGLA.

Whats your zip code? We have dealers that are listed yet on our locator (IGLA dealers that will be swapping once we have our full product release in about 2-3 weeks).
Yes, 100% effective

If it works, keep it, ours is far easier to use and thats why many have switched.

Is a certified installer mandatory, or can one install themselves if they have automobile wiring experience?

Chipsets - you talking USB 4 and PCIe 5.0?
