Default Securing my Civic

I'm getting a 92-99 EX soon and was wonder what I can do to keep it secure. My brother keeps saying its going to get jacked so I don't want to risk it. Nothing too complicated

edit: I didn't know which part this would fit under so I picked here since it is technically a mod.

Fuel Cut off switches are nice easy and cheap.

What exactly does it do. My brother said the same thing

edit: Let me rephrase, how easy is it to get past?

The fuel pump switch is hidden so that if someone tries to steal the car it will start but dies after about 2 seconds. unless they find my switch they wont get anywhere with the entire car unless they tow it. i hid my switch real well since its my only method of security at the moment. wont stop break-ins but gives me piece of mind that my car will still be there when i leave it.

If you park in a really bad part of town, you can always take out the fuse for the fuel pump. Without it, the engine will just crank, it won't start. Just make ABSOLUTELY SURE you don't lose the fuse! Just buy an extra and hide it somewhere in the car.

Good Luck!
