Hi, what lock did you choose? I recently got a Brezza ZXI+ AT and I'm in same boat as you were looking for a reliable lock.

If you can get someone coming from abroad to get you Club Twin, Tevlaphee or Disklok, you should definitely get one of those. Else Yarich is the best i thought.

When I park at not so safe places, I carry some fuses/relays with me. Mostly it's the fuel pump and/or starter motor related.

Hi, Has anyone tried to remove ignition switch as anti theft measure in new Brezza? Is this a right method to prevent theft? There are two ignition switches one rated at 40A and other at 50A.Fuse puller given in fuse box looks smaller to pull them. Is it necessary to remove both fuses to prevent the car from starting?

can you pls help to check if I'm doing this right?

According to the SA of Hyundai, it will, if they find the switch lol:

Accessing the car won't be a problem, you are not locking your car shut with the switch, just the ignition won’t come on. Imagine installing another switch between your mains and your MCB in your house, till you turn it on, MCB would not get power.

Can any expert update this thread with links to currently available options like steering locks that are good? And also include details about Farady box, RFID shielding key pouch and their usefulness.
A section on telematics and how to use them securely and prevent hacking would also be good as most cars are coming with these. If there are posts about these elsewhere kindly point me to them. Thanks.
