How do you secure your car from theft?

enough na ba yung car alarm lang or does anyone of you use a steering wheel lock?

sobrang dami ng steering wheel lock, what type kaya yung effective?

lagyan mo hidden switch for the efi and electronic ignition power supply. but this is strictly DYI, di mo pwede pagawa sa iba or otherwise hindi na sya secret. must hide the not just the switch but also the wires and where you splice the power supply wires.

i just park it in a 'safer' place.

na ask ko na ito dati, pero di ko na nakita yung sagot:

is the built-in engine immobilizer enough? kasi when i used a duplicate 'CardKey', ayaw magstart nung engine. so does this mean kahit i-tap nila yung wire underneat the steering column hindi rin mag start yung engine?

not when the one stealing your car knows how to circumvent it. e yung carnapper lahat ng alarm pinagaralan nyan, kaya pag may immobiliser ka alam din nya kung san yun naka-kabit. mas masipag pa mag-aral ng homework ang carnapper than most of us here.

remove the distributor wire from your engine?

most new cars ba may built-in immobilizer na? or does this come with the alarm?

yung lynx ba meron? sabi kasi ng previous owner ayaw nga daw mag start yung car sa duplicate key niya (not the key from ford)

some of today's car have a microchip in the key. So if you use the same key but without the chip, the car will not start but you can still manually open the doors.
