Best security systems?

[ntstlgl1970]

Oh, great insurance is a no-brainer. But still, I've waited so long and went through so much for this car that I couldn't simply buy it again. Even covered for more than it's worth, it'd be more waiting and they don't reimburse you for time and patience.

The kill switches all sound well and good, but that's essentially what the Ravelco does. Takes a bunch of electrical components and obfuscates where they're coming from and where they're going. Basically meaning you can't figure out how to start the car.

Do these things have locking steering columns? I also read that, when parked, it's smart to turn your wheel all the way to one side and lock it so it's harder to tow away. Is it easy to break the column and undo this?

it's pretty easy to slide hammer the ignition lock cylinder out on a stock column and defeat the steering wheel lock, the column is only made of pot metal.

This topic can be debated forever! But in actuality... the best system is a good insurance policy! MY guns, 106lb shepard, alarm system in the garage, really wont stop anybody if they REALLY want it. Yes it sucks but...

Those wheel boots and such look like good ideas for long term storage, but they're probably not something you'd want to whip out of the trunk every time you take the car out and park it somewhere.
