It's readily available, legal (as far as I know), and will make the buggers squirm a little in pain! You just need pressurised canisters of the stuff and some 12V solenoid valves. Maybe a buzzer and a big 10mm LED starts to flash high up on the A Pillar (get their attention), then spray em right in the boat race! The only problem with anything like this type of system though is that they may come back (when they've recovered) and take revenge on your poor little car! Has something happened to you recently that has prompted the evil side of your creative mind to spring into action? :-) Cheers, Sean -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
