anti-theft steering wheel lock
A steering wheel lock is necessary for those who live in or near a big city. The Club that I have been using does not fit the TL, even though it is supposed to fit ALL cars. I think the center hub of TL's steering wheel is a bit too high, such that when The Club is applied, it presses against the hub and causes the horn to go off.
What brand or type of anti-theft steering wheel lock do you use and what would you recommend?? Thanks in advance for your response.

I've used this

and I've used the Masterlock one that covers half of the steering wheel (it seems to be discontinued).
I think that the Masterlock one offers more security, because i was able to remove the Wrap one myself without a key. But don't think for a second that any of these locks will delay a professional thief for more than a minute. I stopped using them, since they are pretty much useless. Your best bet would be to invest in a good alarm system.

A more fullproof method. I remember somebody mentioning pulling a particular fuse (ignition? master?) that prevented the car from starting. There is no way around that unless they carry this particular tl fuse with them and know what you did
