Steering Wheel Lock - effective ba talaga?

[suv]

Sir effective ba talaga steering wheel lock?

Talagang hindi matatangal or mauubos oras ng carnapper pag tatangalin?

[Syuryuken]

depende sa klase.

[Yoda]

Watch Gone In 60 Seconds (Nicolas Cage) if you haven't already.

These devices are deterrents. Nothing's burglar proof if the burglar is determined or resourceful enough. But it does discourage the small time ones.

That said, I use one myself.

hindi ko pa napanuod pero sigurado hi-tech ginamit na pantangal jan.

Tinanggal nya yung buong manibela, tapos pinalitan ng "spare" na dala nya. Hi-tech?

Yung sakin padala lang galing US, so hindi ko alam kung locally available. So far, I haven't seen one here. It just has "The Club" written on the shaft.

Type R yung binili ko sa Concorde.

May imitation nga akong nakita parehong-pareho sa steering wheel lock ko pero isang batak lang tanggal na made in China eh.

[HIFI]

Deterrent lang talaga.

I could have bought a more expensive and "secure" lock like Carryboy's 3Lock....but alas, this one could not be seen from the outside.

I ended up getting a P500.00 baseball bat type lock. Visible deterrent.

And...when I park, I usually park, katabi ng mga magagandang kotse, hoping na yun katabi ko ang titirahin muna.

mas maganda siguro ang lock na para sa brake pedal.matagal nako naghahanap nito pero wala ako makita.puro combination nakikita ko.tanda ko may ganito na dati sa mga home shopping tv, kaya lang wala na ngayun.combination na lang binili ko.

Just do the smart thing... do a fuel pump kill switch and locate it somewhere where people won't think of looking. ;)

They'll be able to start the car, but they won't get very far.

[funkngruvn]

ang gamit ko yung maglolock ng steering wheel sa clutch/ brake pedal..

What do you mean here?

Btw, have a Secured and high quality Car Alarm, mas okay yata ung pag ni-alarm mo tpos pinipilit buksan ng carnapper, ung may lalabas na apoy from below, toasting those thieves.. hehe kung meron lng eh, hahaha....

The fuel pump is electrically powered.

Ghosthunter opined that a cheap car security solution would be a fuel pump kill switch, with a a switch bought at a hardware store installed in the electrical wiring going to the pump.

Hide it somewhere reachable but hidden in the cabin.

Low profile but effective. Effectivity is gaano ka low profile/tago pero accessible ang switch. Ibang car immobilizers ay ito ang gamit na paraan.

I am considering to buy a steering wheel lock, pero di ako bilib sa effectivity ng mga ito. One na way para ma defeat ang lock na ito ay lagariin ang manibela. Kahit gaano katibay ang bakal ng steering wheel lock, mahina lang ang bakal sa manibela (in comparison).

They're not foolproof. But if you're parked next to a similar car not equipped with one, why would the thief even bother to take the extra time with yours? Steering wheel locks have a ballpark cost of Php500.00 and takes only a few seconds to install/remove.

[bumags]

I use the one which crosses the steering wheel....

at least Nicolas Cage won't be able to do his thing to my car.... he he he!

pero...deterrent lang nga talaga sila....

It was called "The Outlaw." Sayang nga, hindi na sya available sa Home Shopping Network ngayon. Nakakabit sa brake pedal lang, kaya hindi mo pwede tapakan ang brake. I was sold on the idea. Matibay yung bakal, and the only way to get it off is to saw through the brake pedal itself. So dapat may dalang spare brake pedal yung car thief

I also use a steering wheel lock (Solex), in combination with my Clifford alarm. May starter kill, kaya in case na nag-trip yung alarm, hindi mo pwede i-start yung sasakyan.

[wakin]

deterrent lang talaga. pero kung sa mga magnanakaw, ang uunahin nila eh yung walang sagabal.

[CVT]

It is effective as a deterrence....

I use it in tandem with my car alarm...

I agree na deterrent ang mga ito. Pahihirapan muna bago makuha ang tsikot natin.

Iyong iba nga na walang alarm, naglalagay ng blinking LED para as if may alam siya. An example of a cheap deterrent.

[chuaed]

i guess mainam na deterent iyan... kung talaga paginitan kotse mo eh kahit ano klaseng lock gagamitin mo, mananakaw rin iyan...



alam mo naman maabilidad tayo mga Pinoy...
