been tempted to get one of these...



Question is, are they worth it... seen them for 80 quid (anyone know anywher cheaper )

Are they strong or can the thieving scum get them off easy eanough??

thanks

 

yeah i'd say they are worth it, they are meant to be really hard to remove (& thief's know this)

they did a test n it took 20min to remove it whereas the next closest one too it took about 2min

get one of ebay i paid Ł50 brand new for one

 

Best device on the market IMO

 

They will be cheaper at one of the RS shows

 

if you are at combe i got my one Ł40 or the new compact version Ł50

 

I use one, definately will keep using it as well as the alarm obv!!

 

cheers lads..

not sure that Ill be going to any shows this year.. Any traders sell them on here.. would rather keep it in the family so to speak

 

Available cheaper online gay show fetish bloke.

A guy up here who used to steal cars tell's everyone to buy them as generally theives wont bother with them as they take too long to get off.

 

hmmm, where is coombe? (done amultimap and it came up Scotland ) 40 quid.. bargain.

 

WTF..

where on line..

 

I have one for mine and i allways use it.

Coombe is Bristol mate.

 

cheers mate..

bit of a trek unfortunately.

 

yep got one they are great but take up a lot of space (when u have kids lol) but added security as very hard to remove

lee lost his fingernail tho taking it off not long ago......

hinge shut on his finger

 

they are a finger trap, and a little cumbersome, but i never leave my saff without it

i picked mine up at a show for Ł45 with a free bag

cheapest i have seen them online is around Ł80

well worth it.....just dont get a gay chrome one

 

worth it just as a deterrent, and it adds to your security layers, so if they get past the alarm, they then have to break that off as well, which adds a lot to the time/noise/ chances of being nabbed etc

My car has a tracker, cat 1 alarm/immob, gearlock,disclock, and as an added deterrent at the moment no fooking engine

 

I have had my one for about 6 years well worth it imo


Brian

 

I've had one on my RS's for about 8 years now and I think I'll always have them now.

 

Been using them for years on my cars & they seem to have been a brilliant deterrent

 

cheers lads..

gonna pop down Halfords

 

There about Ł45 at Costco

 

are they...



change of plan.. off to costco.

 

that was lucky.. just called them. No longer sell them

 

deffo worth buying even if you have to pay the Ł80 imo..been using mine for a few years now

 

right got one

got size small... not exactly a snug fit tho atre they... thought it would be tight like a nice fanny..

 

had one about 8 years, and no cars stolen, so, so far so good

 

Had mine for about 10 or so years now, still works fine

Steve.

 

are yours nice and tight lads...???



it wont come off but just doesnt feel snug if you know what I mean.

 

mines an extra small one and it still spins round on the steering wheel

 

nope loos s, think thats the way its meant to be, freely moving to stop you getting decent leverage off it

also too loose to drive with it if you cut the arm off

 

very good points Fil..

many thanks I can rest happy now

 

kiddy i know lost the keys to his, he had it off within 15 minutes, and he's no car thief!!!

 

i dont doubt that, i could get it of in a few min's, but the noise and attention you would draw is the deterent, and time factor to doing it quitely

i belive there is a mod to make them harder to get off? but dont know whats involved?

 

15 mins in comparisin to under 20 secs is a long time..

most thieves can knick a car in seconds/ a minute or two, so if it makes the process a whole lot longer, then it can only be a good thing

 

would be interested in knowing this mod...

 

i think it has something to do with welding to disks somewhere???

 

Brilliant things.

Got one for my Capri which I thought was a smart move as it could probably be stolen with a toothpick

 

Superb bit of kit and worth every penny

Mind those fingers though as the buggers bite

 

Theres 2 ways to get a Disklok off in under a minute.

The first is .....


Edited. Sorry.

 

the cheaper ones make it easier to break the steering lock soo they useless!!!!!!

 

i also use the small one in yellow,
top kit ,

tho its scratched fook out of the leather
on my 3 spoker getting it on and off
