	We have had LoJack in the Greater Boston area for 15 or so years 
now, and the car theft rate has dropped down dramtically.  The LoJack 
operators were installing them in local police department cars free of 
charge, or giving the units to the police radio shop to install.  
	The LoJack folks are offering on their radio ads around here, 
"If your car is not recovered within 24 hours of being reported 
stolen we will refund the full cost of the system.  " ( $500-600 
currently)  They have all kinds of stories of cars being recovered  in 
under an hour.  others about a car being stolen and recovered twice 
in a 24 hour period.  Works for me.
