    I've been using a steering wheel lock for about 2 years now at nawala ko susi dito sa mall. Nagpunta ako sa handyman at sinabi ko yung problem, na kung pwede putulin yung lock kesa umuwi pa ako at kunin spare key, mas mahal pa fare pauwi. Ang sabi nung isang guy babarinahin lang daw yung susian para mabuksan. Pero ako sabi ko baka di mabuksan, bumili ako nung panglagari na blade.

    Nung binarena na nung lalaki yung susian, voila, nabuksan agad at nagloose. Walang 30 seconds. So how does this product protect our car again? Knowing na ganun lang pala siya kadali tanggalin.

    Its more of a deterrent really. If it will delay the carnapper, they will look for easier prey. What brand steering lock did you have? The cheap ones i saw before look pretty easy to defeat. What others do is to saw the steering wheel to remove the lock.

    Ung mga carnaper sa pinas naman siguro ay hindi mahilig magdala ng portable drill, pero swerte ka pa din at natangal ung wheel lock kesa ung manibela ang sisirain. Kung kaya pa naman ng budget mo pa install ka pa din ng car alarm or ung car gps tracker.

    in the olden days, before the advent of car alarms, some motorists would bring with them the hi tension cable. the one from the ignition coil to the distributor..
    ...sayyy... not a bad idea, even today..

    if your car has an electric fuel pump might as well put a secret switch to have a cut off. kahit na hawak mo pa yung orig na susi puro redondo lang hanggang sa malobat pero hindi papaandar dahil walang gas na aakyat sa fuel line. Nung nalaman kasi ni erpat na tinatakas ko yung adventure namin dati pag gabi nagulat ako 1 beses ayaw umandar yung pala nilagyan ng secret switch. o kaya naman yung live wire na papunta sa starter para mag crank ng engine padaanin mo sa magnetic reed switch, so kailangan may dala ka magnet dikit mo sa reed switch saka mo start pero kung walang magnet na nakadikit sa reed switch hindi mag crank yung engine
