lennyhb Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 If you fit a more secure lock it may act as a deterrent or they may do more damage if they want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muswell Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yes, a bit like the advice not to lock your glove box because the damage costs more to repair than the sunglasses you lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keithl Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 kelly58 - 2013-04-11 10:54 AM Our new Auto-Trail has the spare wheel conveniently fixed on the back panel behind a lockable cover. Kelvyn, Could you get the cover added on to the alarm system (assuming you have one of course) then you would be alerted to any attempted theft before too much damage was done. Possibly use waterproof magnetic contacts for long life. Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
