[QUOTE="prodigy, post: 334160, member: 232"] guys, there's not one security company in the world that can come out and say the car won't be stolen while using their product coz the fact is, you car is not 100% safe. the only way to minimise the risk is by using steering lock, gear lock and pedal lock. i mean if you're an extreme person, u can use all 3 but actually the gear lock and steering lock is good enuff. just as long as the thief can see those locks, he'll be deterred. better still if you got your glass sand blasted, the bigger the better. now we talk about getting a good steering lock. why should u pay RM250 for STOPLOCK when u can buy a TYPE R or BROTHERS for only RM55? first, the quality of material used. brand x might use a normal mild steel material while STOPLOCK might use a toughened high tensile steel. also, the reliability of the lock comes into picture. this happened to me once. once i parked my car outside my house and i bought this cheapo baseball steering lock. next morning, i use the key to open the lock and to my surprise the key went in, twisted but the freaking lock doesn't disengage itself. spent the next 20 minutes twisting the keys and trying watsoever ways to open the lock but couldn't open. luckily it was outside my house so i took some WD40 spray a bit and tried a few times, finally it opened. immediately threw away that stupid steering lock. lesson learnt, bought a stoplock and i never had such problem anymore.
