Here is my little "issue". I am going to college in September and I MUST take my car, but it will be in the parking lot... What accessories can I get to make my car relatively safe. I have BMW Assist and I am planning on purchasing 4 different sets of wheel locks(Have 1 one already) but I am not sure where I can get 4 sets that fit a BMW. What else can I get in my car like alarm-wise and protection-wise. I'd rather be safer than sorry

.My son starts college in August and he is leaving his car at home.
If you do take it work hard to find a good parking space, lots of light, visible from buildings etc. Never leave anything valuable visible in the car, never wash it. The dirtier the better but even then a BMW will usually stand out on a campus full of college kids cars...
Best bet is to find some local near campus who will rent you a parking space in their drive way, or better yet garage.

.How are the brakes? do you just have the rotors or the whole BBK?
