Let me start by saying this steering wheel lock is a game-changer for anyone worried about car theft. The heavy-duty metal chain feels sturdy in your hands, and the hardened steel construction gives you that 'this will actually stop someone' confidence.

The installation is super simple - just wrap the chain around your steering wheel and click it into the seat belt buckle. I love that you can leave the lock body attached to the seat belt permanently (in unlocked position) and just add the chain when needed. Saves so much time compared to traditional steering wheel locks!

In daily use, I've found it works perfectly in my SUV. The 70cm chain length provides enough reach from steering wheel to seat belt buckle without being too loose. And when not in use, it tucks away neatly in my glove compartment - no bulky club taking up space.

Now for the drawbacks: The safety concerns are real. You absolutely must remember to keep it unlocked while driving, or you won't be able to release your seatbelt in an emergency. I nearly made this mistake myself during testing when I accidentally locked it with my keys outside the car - not a fun situation!

The removal process using the included Allen wrench is also a bit clunky. If you lose that specific wrench, you're stuck with a permanent seatbelt extender that may compromise safety in a crash.

While no anti-theft device is 100% foolproof, this one definitely makes your car a harder target. The visible yellow fabric cover alone might be enough to deter casual thieves. Just remember: always keep your keys handy and double-check it's unlocked before driving!
