the pics dont work for me..

IMO, not every security device is made to work 100%. They are just meant to slow the theif down.. Especially layered security.. Its supposed to "frustrate" the theif so that he will hopefully give up and move on.

i would do the same thing he did if that happened to me. I would try and discourage everyone from buying autolock. but... autolock works great for me!

they try to justify the "buster" by saying that they completely document every one sold... what then? How is that helping somebody that gets their car stolen because a thief has one of these. They'd have to find the buster laying around at the scene with the serial number in tact. bull **** i tell ya.

That one pic looks photo shopped, If you put the autolock on your clutch I don't think it would fit. And no car thief is going to hang outside the car with the alarm going off.

I have two autolocks, one for the clutch, one for the break. Try pull those suckers sideway. I am afraid there are is no room for such manuver like a goddamn truck.

you figure thieves already know about devices like this... so it doesn't matter that the link is being put around diff threads...

anyway no security device is 100% secure.. but it does offer an additional barrier/layer that the theif has to get around into order to take your car...time is the theifs enemy.. so you want to put as many layers of security as you can...

now tow trucks.. *shudder*...

**** autolock and the club and all that. get a good alarm that has a starter kill. then wire in a fuel pump kill...you can do it as a toggle switch but the best way is to wire it as a momentary with a relay so that way you can't accidentally disengage your fuel pump while driving and you can't accidentally leave the toggle on when you lock your car. hide the momentary switch well

Got my autolock for $39.99 and I'm not complaining. As a matter of fact, I may get a 2nd because there are too many goddamn thieves around here. Sure it's not guaranteeing anything, but I definitely think it helps.

i don't think the club buster is gonna work. you would need a lot of torque and power to break the metal on the autolock. and my integra doesn't have enough room to shift that far. that's crazy on how that happen to that guy though.
