steering lock removal: 5 years ago some semipro a88hole thief wrecked my steering column and cost me a fortune to fix. Since this is an EU 1973 legal requirement now covered by the electronic immobiliser, maybe someone out there has removed the bolt from the steering lock, much less repairs if there is an attempt. If so any experience to pass on? Or am I crazy to rely on the immobiliser and/or alarm as sole defence?

Thanks to you guys for lots of great stuff on the car, really appreciated.
sincerely,

Hi John,

Sorry to be cynical, but why are you posting this in the Bay Area forum? I would imagine if you are from Ireland? the international forum should be better? Also, asking about other defenses in our cars would be asking for disaster if someone knew you and your car. Please take no offense to this but you can imagine posting in a local forum about security just seemed odd to me.

best regards,
