    I've been trying to figure out how to do that and have done some research but can't figure out the wires etc needed to get it to start off of electric start as the kick-start doesn't work

    Spent the day installing a 6 camera CCTV system and dealing with the neighbours who were quite upset about it o_O
    It doesnt overlook their properties and it only just covers where my car would be parked on the street and i showed them this on the live feed on my phone o_O but oh no im a terribe person for protecting my own property o_O bunch of dodgey bastards :rolleyes:

    The principle is sound to protect yourself - but what pisses people off deep down....is you've installed something that can record their movements;).

    I had the exact OPPOSITE when I installed all 13 of my cameras. The ones on the front of the house and garage (6), I went round to the neighbours and said I'm putting them up. They all said great, and where do they all come to if something happens?.............mine.
    Mind you, very little happens in my cul de sac now, they all know my cameras cover nearly everything, even caught the scrap man taking cast iron ornaments out of one neighbours garden early in the morning.
