Car Keeps Getting Broken into - What Do?

I park my car on the street outside my house, and over the last month, it has been broken into three times. Its a 2013 Renault, no alarm. It's happened to some of my neighbours as well.

The contents of the glovebox and centre console are rifled through, but there's nothing of value in the car only some old receipts, eneloops, and used tissues, hand san and a couple of pens - nothing to steal!

There's no damage to the car, and there doesn't appear to have been any attempt to steal the car itself. I have no idea what the thieves could be looking for or how they get into the car.

I'm looking for a cost effective way to deter the thieves. A blinking red light on the dash? A fake camera outside of my house? What creative solutions does the OzBargain hive mind have?

    • hahahaahhahaha, car door needs to be unpainted though or else it wont work….plus you'll probably blow your house fuse doing that or trip the rcd….

  • Any update?

  • I am in the same situation.

    Thieves took some stuff, nothing really important. One pair of sunglasses and some earrings left in the glove box. Car was parked in the garage.

    Dash cam not taken and not on parking mode (which it is now) :(
