i have one that i use on the clutch..if i got another could i put it on the brake too?
or is this just a bad device overall and im just wasting my money.........

 

Autolocks are easily defeated by all but the most amature thieves. You'd be better off getting a nice alarm system with kill switches.

 

really? the ones that go on the clutch are easy to remove?
how much will a good alarm run me?

 

About $650 for the new Viper 5901.

Or $200 for the old Viper 5900.
Then toss in a battery backup, and a bit of wire and wire loom, you'll be relatively secure. Definitely important in a 6th generation Honda Civic Si.

 

VIPER 5901 WITH BACK UP BATTERY ..... I BOUGHT MY VIPER 5901 ON EBAY FOR $225

 

And I got a comparable DEI alarm (avital 4400) w/2-way, remote start, keyless for half that off ebay. But you don't get a warranty, and risk getting a knock-off (much more true for the Viper brand).

Honestly if someone is going to cut through 1 autolock, they'll spend the extra time to do it a 2nd time. If you want more 'simple' security, spend the money on a wheel lock. Otherwise a decent alarm & decent install will thwart all but the best theives.

 

i used to have a good chunk of faith in my autolocks, until i locked up my 240sx with it on a roadtrip. too bad i left the key on my integra keyset which was at home. the locksmith guy defeated it pretty quickly.

PM me if you want to know how he did it so you can protect your car better. no lurkers/noobs will be responded to. no big torture device or other big tools were used. no freon or freezing either.

I still use my autolock, albeit with a little less faith, but knowing its main weakness also helps with its difficulty in its forced removal.
