Attempted Grand Theft Auto in SoCal.
First time anyone tried to take my whole car. It was parked in Rowland Heights but the dumbasses didn't know about certain security measures and weren't able to take it. But the ignition column and door keyhole has been mangled to hell.
I had never researched on how easy it is to start the ignition on a Honda without the key, but now that I've seen it; it is so damn easy to start...

Things you should do.
1. Get an alarm
2. Get an autolock
3. Get a quick release for your steering wheel with a quick release lock
4. If you have manual locks then disconnect the locks of your door jams from inside. that way if they try to pull the window and stick their arm in, they cant unlock the door because the locks wont work.
5. BOLT UP YOUR ECU! make sure its tite on.
6. Window visors if you can
7. Relocated your hood latch. Open up your hood and follow the line for the latch and relocate it from the fenders to the inside under the hood. therefore they cant pull your latch line from the fenders.
8. and Last GET A LOJACK!! just in case they toll it away you can find it right away.
I did all of this and I fear noone now..

"The LoJack Stolen Vehicle Recovery System is a small, silent radio transceiver that is hidden in a vehicle by a certified LoJack technician. Once installed, the unit is automatically registered in the LoJack Database, which interfaces with the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) system used by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies throughout the US. In the event of a theft, a customer reports the incident to the police, who make a routine entry into the state police crime computer, resulting in a match of the LoJack System's unique code against the state VIN database. This process automatically triggers the activation of the LoJack unit in the vehicle.
If a LoJack unit is activated, every police car within a 2-3 mile radius and equipped with a tracking unit will automatically be alerted that the vehicle is near."

So my steering lock mechanism is broken (where it automatically locks the steering wheel up when you take your key out)
Is there any threat of it accidentally locking up while I'm driving?
