any of you guys know of anyone that still had their car stolen even though they had the steering wheel taken off with the quick release hub? any positive/negative experiences with the quick release? is it worth the investment?

<FONT SIZE="4">Do a search</FONT> - there are several threads on this topic already:

These are the ones from the Type R forum

Do a search of the competition forum and there will be more...

In general - they provide some measure of protection - but only if you are willing to take it off each and every time.

Most have some play in them - so the steering wheel won't feel like it's on really tight after a while.

Most of them only work with a Momo-type hub.

Most Type R's are towed away anyways when they are jacked - so having no steering wheel is not going to deter thieves much.

Try doing a search on "STOLEN" in the Type R forum - very sad that there are 130+ threads.....
