    hey guys - just had my cat converter stolen couple days ago - broad daylight - South West London residential area.

    I noticed that when i lock the car with the driver side window down, and then open that door from the inside - the alarm doesn't go off like it used too. The thieves of the catalytic converter have done something to the alarm system but just don't know what...

    how can i re-enable the alarm for my 2007 prius?

    many thanks
