has anybody had there cars stolen while running a clutch pedal lock? i have called the company a couple times now and they dont seem to care so im trying to figure out what to do next, my car got broken into and rolled down the street with one on it, upon getting into my car i figured out how they got it off and have since tested it like 6 times on all my buddies ones, it takes like 3-5 seconds, wtf? any commentary on this, i bought it with my Christmas money and like 3 days later i have now found out they are junk

 

wow are you serious? what brand is it that way i know which ones to avoid? my friend has one thats red (autolock i believe) and thinks that he doesnt need to worry about his car with it on.

just like this one, i bought mine at autozone which is a standard product of theres, it says on the package

resists drilling, picking, and freon!! its the original unbreakable autolock

 

^^ I have that one.

Sure cars get taken with them, it isnt anything new.

Autolocks are a good layer, but they will bearly slow a seasoned theif if he wants your car.

When a thief looks in your car, He is going to see it, hopefully some other things aswell. He is going to think 2 things, 1 being **** it, isnt worth it or 2, **** it, lets go for it.
Make your car look like a bitch to steal and he will likely think twice, hopefully.

 

That **** is POOP, lol. Can't believe they say "unpickable" when it took seconds.. glad I didn't waste my money on one.

I'm thinking some sort of "Saw" contraption for my alarm... bear trap built in the headrest or something.. hm.. LOL

 

yeah thats the one, i thought they would fair better than 6 seconds but i guess not.

 

yeh the homie had his EK stolen and he had it on the clutch and the brake pedal. but when we got the car back, they were both still intact and locked. i use the boot on my car personally. lol.

 

It's been a while, but I think this will benefit anyone searching.....

I have one of these and have been lucky so far....but know from a locksmith pal that ANYTHING can be broken into. The way I know how is probably different (will NOT be sharing this), but also takes mere seconds and removes it without a hassle or damage. What these, the club, and the removable steering wheel provide is the possibility that the car gets skipped.

The best anti-theft method would be a fuel pump kill switch with a very ingenious switch method..... and very well hidden. Even then, if you car looks fun or profitable and they think they have ample time....they will try.

Ignition kill switches make no sense on a manual....
