What else does everyone suggest to further secure our cars?

I have a couple easy things like the club and cable around the steering wheel locked to the seat belt. Plus I back into the parking spot and turn my wheels.

I'm assuming that I no longer need to pull a relay?

I'd look in to an immobilizer system with tracking or have a way to track the car. Bonus points if it alerts you if the car moves.

I've got appointments coming up for all (3) of mine for the lockout TSB and spare keys ordered. I too am looking at the long list of ideas to see what else I may do...

RF Hub TSB done.
Starter interrupter, made my own.
Neutral block. " " "
GPS tracker.
Armored the TIPM.
Padlocked steering wheel cable bolted to the floor, wraps around the wheel so the only way to remove it is to cut it or the wheel in 2 places.
OBD port block. ( to do).
Pager alert with interior detector. ( " " )

Any other suggestions are welcomed.

Roy, UT must be a worse place to live than Chicago, Detroit or Philly if that much protection is needed !!!

No, but, it only takes one time and these are minimal cost to do for me, better to have and not need, you know the rest.
Out of pocket, less than $100.

How long does it take for you to start it and drive when fully locked down?

My dealer can’t seem to confirm that it won’t affect the the tune. I know what you guys say but I want to hear it from them. They did say they’d charge me for the 3 keys and once it’s done, no more keys

Mine was done and the transmission got a relearn with a engine tune. I told them not to touch the engine tune or they would brick it. Turned out fine.

As the steering wheel will only be locked on rare occasions, normally, the only action it takes is 1 second to start the engine and drive away. If you were watching me get in the car and start it, I doubt you would even be aware of anything. Everything else does not affect starting. Removing the steering wheel cable, if used, 5 seconds. More to attach it obviously.

I put a GPS/RF component in the car that I got from Defcon, neat little piece of hardware. Tells me all sorts of thing in a 20' vicinity of the car like IMSI and MAC identifiers of devices. There are the numerous apple tags in the body. I also plan to do the Tazer stuff once the car is settled tune wise. I realized I don't need to pull the fuel pump relay anymore, I can just disconnect the FC3 power lines and it does the same thing.

I won't say in the forum which of these I've done so far and what's next, but my top choices are:
Tazer with PIN disable of gas pedal and activation of brakes
Ghost Lock that can disable the ignition and fuel pump, with GPS tracking as well and phone alerts
Kill switch or 2 or 3
RF Hub lockout
Compustar alarm with various sensors
Camera with parking alert and remote upload capability
Faraday boxes and bags for my keys when I'm not in the car.
1 or more trackers in the car

I thought of another one, easy to do, but maybe a bit much.
Although, while I get flamed, I know someone out there will do this.

Move the seat all the way forward, install a switch that cuts power, the seat can't move back. HA!
