0:00 -hi I'm Jeff Scott from sussex
0:02 -installations I show what we've been
0:03 -doing in the workshop today we've been
0:05 -doing a security mission on this
0:06 -Mercedes Sprinter so to start with we
0:09 -fitted extra locks on the doors these
0:10 -are our T-Series faction approved
0:12 -Deadlocks so if someone gets past the
0:14 -manufacturer's lock in the door open
0:16 -just opens a couple of millimet and the
0:18 -deadlock has the door
0:20 -secure we fitted one of these on each of
0:23 -the doors this is six side load door and
0:26 -it's the twin rear barn doors at the
0:28 -back this is actually a internationally
0:31 -one from the Netherlands so the side
0:33 -side load doors on the other side extra
0:35 -lock this is the driver's door same
0:37 -thing extra lock on there so if the
0:39 -manufacturer's locking gets breached it
0:42 -just goes a couple of millimeters and
0:43 -the deadlock has it secure what we've
0:45 -also done to this is we fited an alarm
0:47 -system this alarm system is upgraded to
0:50 -work from the manufacturer's original
0:52 -remote control so if I press the lock
0:53 -button it locks the alarm turns on and
0:57 -there's also an ultra bright flashing
1:00 -blue LED on the dashboard just to let
1:02 -everyone else know that the alarm's on
1:04 -WE fitted the ultrasonic sensors in the
1:06 -cab which go up on the top of the
1:08 -pillars and it obviously has the
1:10 -switches already on the doors so each
1:12 -door has a switch but we've done a
1:14 -little bit more than just that
1:17 -so the load area of this and if you just
1:20 -come around with me here so this side
1:23 -load door so to start with obviously
1:25 -we're worried at the moment about
1:26 -folding of side load doors so we fitted
1:28 -an extra switch right up the top in the
1:31 -corner here on the side load door so
1:34 -that switch I don't know if you can see
1:35 -that there would just protect if anyone
1:37 -starts to pull on the top of this door
1:39 -to try and fold the door over the switch
1:42 -is going to go nice and early and set
1:43 -the alarm off so given an early warning
1:46 -that the that hopefully they don't
1:48 -progress and damage the door by pulling
1:50 -it down that the alarm goes off early
1:52 -enough to stop them should they actually
1:54 -get past um the door by folding it or
1:57 -should they be able to climb inside the
2:00 -the van by cutting a hole through the
2:01 -roof or cutting a hole through the side
2:02 -of the van we've put a p detector in it
2:04 -too so this PR detector will detect
2:08 -movement in the rear of this van any
2:11 -movement in the rear of this van will
2:12 -set off this P detector which will
2:15 -trigger the alarm system which we fill
2:17 -in so we secured the locks on the doors
2:19 -secured the doors with extra Deadlocks
2:21 -we've put the alarm system that works
2:23 -from the factory remote control we put
2:25 -the extra sensor in on the load area the
2:29 -p we put the door switch up high on this
2:32 -side lad door of this Sprinter because
2:33 -this is the not the highest one it
2:35 -doesn't actually have an extra catch on
2:36 -here so extra important to have that
2:39 -that on this Sprinter next thing to show
2:42 -you is actually underneath the Bonnet so
2:44 -if I just crack the Bonnet there's a
2:46 -couple of extra vulnerabilities here
2:49 -with this van one of
2:51 -them is the ECU so I think the Sprinter
2:56 -problems of people stealing the van
2:58 -aren't necessarily the same as other
3:00 -makes and models where where they code
3:03 -new keys to the van but what they can do
3:06 -it seems is to bring their own ECU with
3:08 -them because the key is just like a a
3:10 -generic key they're all the same
3:11 -physically it means that any key will
3:13 -actually fit the dashboard so it's just
3:15 -the electronics that change so if they
3:17 -was to come along a thief with their own
3:19 -ECU that's already paired up to their
3:21 -own set of keys then what they could do
3:23 -with that is they could actually just
3:25 -plug it straight in to the to the wiring
3:27 -loom here and drive away as if it's
3:30 -their own van so what we've done we've h
3:32 -a big heavy duty Shield there I don't
3:34 -know if you can see that Shield over the
3:36 -ECU but there's a real big heavy duty
3:38 -shield and that's bolted on with Shear
3:40 -bolts because access to this ECU is
3:43 -quite easy there's um there's actually
3:45 -just a plastic trim on the wheel Arch
3:47 -here and then of course by opening up
3:49 -the Bonnet they'd be able to get through
3:50 -it anyway another thing which seems to
3:53 -be a real big expensive pain is if there
3:56 -was to get in and steal the cataly
3:58 -converter so you probably can't see it
4:00 -very well in the dark here but we fitted
4:02 -a a cat lock to this vehicle to keep the
4:04 -catalic converter safe from FF which
4:08 -would be a big expensive inconvenience
4:10 -should that get stolen um another thing
4:13 -that we did while we was at it was
4:14 -actually not a security product but a
4:15 -convenience product we we fitted parking
4:17 -sensors to this to this van as well so
4:20 -there's extra sensors on the the bumper
4:22 -very strange configuration this one with
4:24 -a step to the right so we've had to
4:27 -adapt with that and put a sensor on the
4:29 -step twoo
4:30 -so it's been a hard day's work but me
4:33 -and the the the guys the team we've been
4:35 -on it today we've got this van secure we
4:37 -got the convenience of Those sensors we
4:39 -got the cap lit converter secure um if
4:42 -you'd like products for your Sprinter or
4:44 -any other vehicle get in touch via the
4:46 -website it's
