if you live in a trashy neighbourhood or you're just worried about your car in general id say its worth the $25
alarm + the club + kill switch + autolock = ill pass on your car and go steal the dude who replied that the club is junk's car

that's how i see it at least

its better than nothing.. but they can cut your steering wheel, spread the 2 cut halves and slip off the club... if you must buy a club.. get the twinhooks kind.. it actually saved a members car from getting stolen and it has to be cut in 2 places to be slipped off.. I think you should buy an autolock for a low priced/temporary anti-theft device.. this slips on your clutch or brake pedal to lock it.. then install a kill switch.. which doesnt cost much at all .. just be creative on switch placement.. then when you saved up enough for an alarm.. keep using the other 2 (kill switch and autolock).. watch out for the tow trucks though = (

Dude forget the club. Pull your ECu every night then all your fuse in the underhood fuse panels. UNattch the battery and unhook the + cable to starter. take all the spark plugs out and wires. Then take your rims and tires in with you.

Nobody will steal your car but thell trash it nicley since they couldnt steal it

ok, i hooked up a kill switch, and *bonus* i learned a few things...
(i opted for a starter kill instead of a clutch deal.)

didn't know i needed a 12v dc switch(just figured any circuit cut off would do)

and most importantly: there are'nt too many places to hide a switch in a hatchback!!!

but these things are better by design, so i got it pretty far hidden-i hope i'll never need it

wut about the club with that metal hat they have now. it protects your steering wheel from getting cut.
