Unfortunately, this is a risk of owning a Civic. All stolen vehicles should be posted here.

#49656 ^ i was thinking about doing that and also cutting my ecu wires about 6 inches from the conector, going out to radio shack and getting a different male and female conectors, that way i could wire the 6 inch 1 with a conector and the cut one in the car would get a one aswell... that way if you take ur ecu out and the bring 1 without having that piece, they cant just plug a ecu and roll... i hope i explain that rite..

I think i know what you mean, making something like a removable harddiskdrive ? but then with your ECU, that is a f*cking great idea !!

Cell phone is 440-856-9096 if anybody sees it.

Also had f2 coilovers and skunk2 upper control arms.
No other features. The wheels are just spray painted hx rims.
I knew last night when I called to report it stolen that it was already too late. I am now just waiting to see if they will find it stripped or never see it again.

#54508 How was it stolen if it has a removable steering wheel? :?
User avatar
By teal_dx
#54509 he either had it stored in the car or the thieves brought their own steering wheel or it was towed. Removable steering wheel is a deterrent, but no way will it keep your car from being stolen.

#54627 Removing steering wheel and ECU is useless. I see threads ALL the time where the owner claimed to have removed the steering wheel and/or ECU.
