The following topic was no longer available for writing, so we have started it up again.
https://losangeles.vivinavi.com/eb/index/-?topic_id=_widg_1a00f2dcc0a1bbf880f8a9dda39961c4fa92112005&show=all#_widg_1a00f2dcc0a1bbf880f8a9dda39961c4fa92112005

I was just about to start the engine of a car that was parked on the street when I heard an explosion and someone nearby ran to my car and said, "The converter is I think it's been stolen. It was stolen from my car last night ！."

I thought I had seen a post like this on Vivinavi... So I read the past topics.
I was too shocked... The prices are the same, but it's the holiday season and many mechanics are closed... Crying
I've done a lot of research and it seems that there is some kind of anti-theft cover, but has anyone actually worn or had one installed?
I asked because it would be very painful to have it stolen again even if I put it on newly, and I wanted to know if there is any countermeasure.
In addition, the garage only has space for two cars, and with three cars, one of them will inevitably be parked on the street.

From the URL in #57, it looks like if I grind the heads of the rivets that are driven into the left and right boards

with a grinder that cuts the front and rear pipes of the Cateric converter

this board will also come off in a very short time.

The mechanic I am working with will weld a bar that will not break immediately at his place.

Many people seem to have taken various countermeasures, but I watched a video that compared about 5-6 different kinds of 모듈(내 installation and cutting), and most of them were destroyed within 5 minutes or so.
There may be many factors such as the environment in which they are parked, the persistence of the thief, etc.

Even a sturdy bar is going to be cut off in a few minutes. It depends on who steals it. Some will look at it and give up, others will steal it if they have the right tools. Even if they give up, they might come back at a later date and steal it. There are even people who have had theirs stolen so many times.
