2005 Civic Security

Hi All,

After lurking here for a while, I'm going to take care of the final
paperwork on a 2005 Civic Sedan LX (auto trans). Yeah!

Now the new paranoia.

Any thoughts on things like an autolock (attaches to the break) or the
lawman's car bar (which also wraps the airbag)?

I know they are all susceptible to the average thief, and was thinking
that I wanted something to either keep my car from moving or create a
hassle around the steering wheel and protect the airbag.

Any sites with independent reviews (google didn't help, but maybe I was
asking the wrong the question)? Or thoughts on some alternative
manufactures or models or ideas?

Your opinions are appreciated.

either, or. or nothing.

id probably go to costco and get some seat covers and floor mats, too.
my front seats still look like new, and the carpets still clean after 7
years. i also never use armorall on the inside. just wipe down with a
damp rag.

get the factory alarm, and keep the factory stereo in there. most cars
get broken into because theyre moving surround sound theaters, with
multiple screens, etc.

keep sunglasses, CDs, cellphones, PDAs, Ipods, etc out of sight or on you.

 

Got it. More for look than anything. I'll likely get the one that covers
the airbag, just so I feel better.

Was wondering about that. Thanks for the input. I'm in the NE so I was
looking at some weathertec all-season mats and the trunk liner.

Went for the alarm in the end. Hope the immobilizer lives up to the
hype. I have more faith in that than the noise everyone ignores! Stock
radio is fine with me, and I don't need my car to hop in rhythm across
the roadbed!

Fer sure. Thanks for the input.
