i don't have that much experience with quick release steering wheels and locks but i was thinking, if one were to have this set up wouldn't be virtually impossible for thieves to steel someones car? (well without towing it obviously)

could they pry off the lock or something and attach their own steering wheel?

 

not impossible but would help a great deal.

 

I've heard the NRG hub lock key's are all universal to one another.. Is there any truth to this?

 

I hope there isn't truth to that..

 

how would they go about on stealing a car with a lock?

 

break the lock. anything is possible.

 

no way in hell. the qr are though.

 

yes they can take/tear it apart ..

 

how easy is it to break it and tear it apart?

 

It's better then nothing.

 

lol damn doing some extensive research on quick releases. I had one that a friend of mine had it was missing the keys and he had already replaced the whole unit, anyways to say the least they are really tough mech. They deter thieves and look descent doing it. I tell you if I was a thief and I saw a car with a full locking unit, I wouldn't bother, but then again if someone wants something bad enough they are going to get it no matter what, so locking detachable unit plus a good alarm system is the way to go. *** thieves

 

could i use the quick release/locking hub on my jdm itr steering wheel?

 

no

 

I was asking myself the same thing about the hub lock. My friend said there was a video of a guy trying to pry/smash/break it open, but he had no luck.

 

looks like im getting one then!

 

yeah good thing to have and a very cool mod.

 

I was talking to a buddy at a shop and said if u try and drill out the key hole on the lock the assembly falls apart and u can't take the unit off. Kinda like safe's do, but don't quote me on that

 

LMAO at this guys name, and ive gotten a locking hub off without the key. sorry to break it to you guys. ive had to take a couple off steering columns sold at my junkyard, next time ill make a vid. deff pain in the *** and will slow a thief down thought

 

ive had my NRG for years on my integra its awesome

 

just an extra security measure if a thief sees one with an NRG lock hell prolly go look for somethingeasier to steal

 

Yes its possible with some modding. There was a thread DIY a few months back. IIRC it was only the non srs wheel.

 

Would u just sale the lock

 

How much are NRG hubs?

 

i just purchased a momo wheel/qr/hub
but there's no lock on it...
