Default Steering wheel locks

Sup guys...I'm just wondering if anyone is using any steering wheel locks like THE CLUB or those locks that you place on the brake pedal? Is it worth getting one? What's the best brand other than The Club? Should I get the one for the steering wheel or the one that goes on the brake pedal? Is it even worth getting one if I already have the Scion Security installed? Opinions, suggestions and feedbacks would be greatly appreciated...thanks

The club for the steering wheel is 100% useless. It is nice hard metal for sure, but you can cut through a standard steering wheel in a couple of minutes with a normal hacksaw. They are made of a softer metal core so that they give, thus they are super easy to cut. So, someone can simply cut through the wheel on each side next to the club, give the wheel a twist and pop off the club. I have seen a video of someone taking one off in less that 10 minutes.

It's been a long time since I've seen anything about it but the last I read the best thing to prevent car theft is a kill switch.

a good idea like chadfo said is a kill switch.. to the fuel pump.. that way it'll be hidden and only you can pretty much know where it is
