Hello ,
Today my dad's car was in the process of being stolen , fortunately enough they only broke the glass and couldn't drive away so they stole whatever in the car and left us with an expensive broken glass needed to be replaced ASAP. Luckily for us what was stolen wasn't anything expensive .
I can't say that we live in the most dangerous place in the country however its unsafe as they tried to steal it a couple of times ago with pretty much the same outcome.
Now down to the question , I want something that can notify us and prevent car theft whether it be an alarm , security cam ,etc . I'm willing to spend in order to prevent the issue from re-occurring again. Furthermore please explain in details your option .
Any Help is appreciated and needed , thanks
P.S : I live in Egypt.

Thanks for the help Joe ,
Actually the car doesn't have an alarm built in which is strange for a 2012 Mercedes Benz nevertheless I feel like an alarm wouldn't be much of a safety feature as there are a ton of cars parked in the street and more often than not there isn't a parking place nearby the apartment so we'd have to park it further away .
It might be a good idea as to scare away the thief but I am little bit skeptical about the overall protection of the car.
Is there a utility that shuts down the entire system and alerts the police when the car's being stolen ?
Thanks again Joe.

Hmm. I play tennis and our clubhouse has the system. When you enter the building when the door isn't fully close. It detects some kind of movement and alerts the owner/president of the club, or the police that there is a breakin or some sort.
I am not sure what the system is so I may need to check out. But unsure if they will provide any information on it due to security reasons.

I will do try but I don't believe it will cause any conflict. Worth the "shot" (tennis short and shot??) right?I will try to get back to you. If I don't then I couldn't get any information on it.
Its worth the "shot" that's true
Keep up the awesome work in the other departments of the forum. Usually when I see you answering somebody's question I'm sure they've got good advice from a really helpful guy
Thanks Joe
