Did you or anyone you know use The Club steering wheel lock?

My grandfather used one of these in the back in the late 90's. I know the point of these things was to prevent auto theft but all you had to do was get a hacksaw and cut the steering wheel to remove it. Hell anyone know someone who still uses it?

Hmm....not sure. Let me ask my chauffeur.

Had one. It could be a nice weapon if the need arose.

No 90s car was complete without the Club and the SafeFit straps

I used it for a long time on my '66 Mustang convertible. Most car thieves are so young they've probably never seen one. Car never got stolen, so I guess it worked.

Seen a lot of people have cars stolen that used these. The thugs learned how to pick the lock or just cut it off. Amateur thieves it scared off. The professional theif they could take one off quickly.
My friend used one on his Mazda Miata with the radio you could pull out the slot. He got his car stolen one day and it was back the next day with $100 taped to the trunk telling him to buy a real car you loser!

I had one until a couple years ago but was too lazy to use it much.
Not a bad thing... While it could be removed by saw or whatever, most thieves go for quick and quiet.

A car I bought came with one of these. I have never used it, but it does look heavy duty. Nowadays, if they really want your car, they will get it, sooner or later.

I had one on my Jeep CJ-7 in the early 2000's....but that was because it had no doors and would start without a key....

Oddly enough i saw a mid-90s Mustang with one of these steering wheels locks on it yesterday. Said Mustang was in the Kroger parking lot in Bossier, not exactly a hotbed for auto thefts.

My 90-something year old neighbor uses one every day.
Posted on 8/19/17 at 9:07 am to BamaHater
My brother lives in San Diego and uses one daily. He had a brand new Jeep stolen a few years back.

It's a good visual deterrent.
Would probably need 2 peeps for a fast theft - 1 on the steering wheel an 1 on the ignition.
Bottmline - if they really want it, they'll get it
