Alright thanks guys. I'll be getting me a brake lock for the clutch. That removable steering wheel would be nice to get but I wouldn't know where to put the steering wheel when i remove it. Cause i'll be at school and I think it'd look pretty weird walking around school with a wheel in my hand. And what are the chances of it coming off while your driving?

I don't do it because I want to. It's because I have to :?

this has been on the forum since when i used to frequent it.

anywho, alarm to make noise, autoloc (the best way to keep your car from being driven off), and the club (merely for looks). also my Integra Type-R car cover can be locked using a small cable that goes through two gromlets on each side. (and once again, the cover was from Acura, specifically made for TYPE-R (made to fit over that wing)).

The alarm works! Once, my dad and I heard it going off at 2:30 am. He came running out with a baseball bat, and I came running out with my samurai sword. The two were trying to get the car cover off. They saw my dad come out the front door, and I came running out our back gate with a "big shiny knife," (4 ft. long katana). They took off in a loud car that already had a driver situated in it.

worst of all, a friend of mine knows the guys who tried to rip me off for my car. he won't tell me who they are. makes me suspicious of my friends...

I don't know much about alarms as you can see. So what is an autoloc, where can i get one, and how much does it cost?

As for the Integra Type-R car cover, did the car come with it? Or did you have to buy it yourself? Cause I don't have one. How much do they cost? The one specifically made for the Type-R.

Is the auto lock the brake/clutch lock?

yes the auto lock locks the clutch or brake in the up position. I have seen on here that thiefs have a tool that can break it but like I said before the more to discourage the better. and how many thiefs have that device or go on to the next car. I think i paid $39. at a local auto parts store.

I feel ya man When my lease is up and i dont have the second car I expect my emblems to get jacked the first time I go to a show or park in
a area that I would otherwise not park. I have thought about taking the emblems off so i wont get a scratch or dent if a thief tries to jack it. they
are just double side taped on right?
