    Does anyone know of a source for locking metal steering column shields like
    were available several years ago for easy-to-break-into GM autos? It keeps
    theieves from cracking open the steering column.

    I had a theft attempt last Thursday 3:15AM,my auto alarm alerted me(it paid
    off!) and I was able to run them off,once I drew my handgun.They were
    pretty bold;they did not attempt to flee when the alarm alerted me,nor when
    I first appeared. They had backed their 96-00 Honda Civic coupe in next to
    mine,and later that day,I discovered they had already hit a similar Honda
    Civic,dedstroyed it's steering coulmn in the theft attempt,then stole it's
    stereo and moved on to my Integra.They didn't get a change to get into my
    car,thankfully.And today,a neighbor had his motorcycle stolen during the
    daytime.

    Police tell me there's a theft ring operating in my area.

    Orlando,Fl. area.
    I didn't find anything in the local auto stores.
    I'm going to try the auto sound/security places next.

    It turns out the bike was stolen during the wee hours of the morning,not
    daytime.
