Default What about this for theft protection

Some of you know last week my car was broken into and somebody tried to steal it for the 2nd time this year. the 92-95 civic's are built way to easy to steal, that small thin aluminum plate that protects the ignition from being started by theives

here's my idea, Cant I just have get a company (or somebody good with metal) to make a new plate out of something stronger ? or some kind of metal strap,

I will post pictures later to show exactley what I mean sorry I dont know the technical terms

Any thoughts on this .. something im missing ... ?

You just advertised yourself to the thieves that broke into your car. They now know what to expect.

all civics from 89-00 are easy to steal...brake plastic peice off...unscrew two screws on the end and take cap off....get pipe wrench and put on ignition where key goes and pry downto brake steering lock...stick flat head or key or what ever u want too into plastic cap and turn and drive away...easy as that less then 1 minute...want to protect ur car?? take ecu, kill switches, and that cool alarm that shocks u with 50,000 volts of electricity...or just get a onstar sysytem...hehe

YEA advertise since he has is address labeles all over the place. and walks around saying 'i'm Stryker908" j/k

just get a detatchable steering wheel. and kill switches; remember if a thief really wants youir car, he'll get it. there are other ways to jack a car without driving it away. ::cough tow-truck::
