QUOTE(Source96 @ Mar 21 2014, 01:29 PM) I myself got a pedal lock for my car around 300 including installation.Since then,i ditched off my steering lock which i have been using before i bought the p.lock. s.lock is easy to spot but p.lock not by theft. so i think if there are two cars, one p.lock and one s.lock, the theft will immediately turn attention to car with p.lock cause he dont see the lock. Quite convenient than s.lock as you just need to slot in the key and unlock it where as you have to unlock and take out and put somewhere bla bla for the s.lock. Personally i would say pedal lock does a better job,but both wil be a good combo if you have a eye catchy civic or something. QUOTE(supersound @ Mar 21 2014, 01:34 PM) proton and use p.lock is ok or no need?QUOTE(aeiou228 @ Mar 21 2014, 01:49 PM) I have witnessed a myvi installed with a brake pedal lock almost bang the car parked in front of the Myvi when the owner forgot to release the lock. i thought driver cannot start an engin until driver release the p-lock. Apparently, the brake pedal lock still allow a small free play on the brake pedal thus allowing the owner to shift the gear to D while the brake remain locked.

QUOTE(Super Saiya @ Mar 22 2014, 02:57 AM) The problem here is when you start the engine when gear is at P, the design fault of the pedal lock allows a small free play to enable you to step on the brake pedal and release the Shift-lock to move the gear to D. I'm talking those hidden type pedal lock where car owner tend to forget the brake pedal was locked. QUOTE(supersound @ Mar 22 2014, 03:50 AM) Proton no need lock. If sufficiently insured, it is better of to get indemnified for being stolen then selling at market price. |

Well, when it is a hot stolen model, the sum insured also need some loading fee. I'm talking those hidden type pedal lock where car owner tend to forget the brake pedal was locked. Proton no need lock. If sufficiently insured, it is better of to get indemnified for being stolen then selling at market price. Especially when > 10 years |
