Yeah, mine wiggles a bit on my Si, but I tried and tried...."it ain't coming off"
BTW, right now I am using it on the brake pedal, tomorrow I will try it on the clutch.

Mine wiggles a little, but it's okay it's not going to come off. Using it on the brake especially in an MT is totally useless. They can still drive the car all they need to do is use the hand brake, my mom did this for months when her brake pads were gone. I'd definitely put it on the clutch.

If you get it at the right angle, you will be able to tighten it far enough to catch that last locking tooth so it's all tight. Sometimes I get it super tight and sometimes I just can't catch that last tooth. Either way I don't see it being any more or less effective.

It would wiggle just a slight bit but not so much that it'll wiggle more than an inch. Mine helped prevent my car from being stolen...

on some cases , hand brake is not enough to stop the car
