Hey Pete,

This is *not* a good idea. LoJack is supposed to be installed *without* the
potential theives knowledge. That's why it works. Letting them know (or
think they know) that you have it will only get them to look for it a
disable it. In your case, it only guarantees they will *really* tear up
your car to find it. LoJack does not do anything itself. It merely serves
as a homing device for the police to track. It is not activated nor take up
any power unitl the LoJack people turn it on. Besides, because of these
facts, the sticker would probably be a dead givaway of a fake install and
an easy steal. Just my .02 cents.
