Default Safety

Im just wondering what you guys use to protect your civic from getting stolen. I just have a club right now, but im probably picking up an autolock tomorrow, and some fuel pump kill switches will be made in the future.

PS- Why isn't there a section for just posting pics of your ride?

that is good to get the fuel pump kill switches. right now i have an alarm and i park the car in the garage in the winter. i would say the best way to keep your car from not being stolen is keep it in the garage. thieves will get around anything to get the car.

also to post pics, use the sights and sounds section on here. there are also member photo galleries for pictures for the members.

I'm getting a removable steering wheel, I take my ECU out of the car when I can, and I have a couple kill switches.

Theives do amazing things to steal a car, so keep it in a garage.

Well, you put a kill switch where you think they wont find it. ECU is the computer.
