Anybody use the Autolock?
Just wondering if it is a good security device to purchase. In theory it sounds great. It locks your break peddle and makes cutting either it or the peddle off much more difficult. Anybody use it or know if this is an easy device for a thief to circumvent?

hmm... i guess if you are clever enough you can drive away with your car by not ever using the brake pedal. to stop you can use a combination of engine braking and the e-brake.
or does the autolock work with the brake pedal fully engaged to begin with?
or are we assuming a automatic? then yeah putting the device on the brake would cause problems for thieves... i guess this device would go on the clutch pedal on a manual tranny.

for manual... its goes on the clutch so they can't start the car.
for automatics... it goes on the brake... they can start he car, but they can't get into reverse/drive b/c you have to step on the brake.

Theives will take it if they want. I had a turbo Integra stolen recently. Also, someone got a Civic Si stolen, one that was equipped with alarm, fuel/starter cutoffs, the club, and TWO autolocks.

Don't listen to me.
My feeling is that The club is a waste of money. If a thief wants the car he is going to take it. The Lock your taking about will only take an extra 17 sec to get through.
