Any Steering wheel lock recommendations?

Howdy Folks,

Planning on getting a steering wheel lock for added security.

Has anyone got info on whats the best make and model etc.

Thanks in advance.

I have a few on my classic cars and have worked in Halfords so had the chance to compare the various makes. I have even had to remove one with a saw when I lost the key, so note from this they can be removed if you are determined.
The best in the ones I have and also compared is disklock, unfortunately it's also the most expensive.
This like is just so you can see one, it may not be the size for the new Jimny.

Pro
The most secure
Large visible deterrent
Various sizes to fit wheel

Cons
If a heavy lump of metal in the car
Can be a fiddle to fit
It's expensive

Nothing will stop them if they want it. Sensible parking and common sense is your best defence, this is second.

Thanks for the reply...

That looks a right tank! Very sturdy looking thing.

Your so right, its about a few things I suppose:

- Deterrence, hence the look of the lock is a big factor
- Time it takes to break the lock if an attack came about.
- Where its parked. / Day or night /CCTV around

Thanks for the recommendation, i'm going to Halfords this morning. I'll take some pictures of whats on offer.

Just ask them to open the boxes so you can compare construction etc. Have fun.

Disklok is chunky but a well made piece of kit, always recommended in the Ford focus ST scene to help stop them being stolen. Trouble is people want a steering wheel lock to be light and easy to take off etc.........
So do the criminals that steal the cars

START AT 8 MIN MARK. Still one of the best "slow em down" security devices.

Thinking of getting a Rottweiler as well

Pizz take aside, the Disc-Lock thingamygimmy is on my list.

I am guessing that the "small" size is suitable for the Gen4?


Edit to say, Eurocarparts have a sale on the Disc-Lock, which ends tonight.
