not secure at all and if you're living in a high crime rated area then I guess it's advisable to get one. Disc lock full steering surround are good but they do damage the leather after many uses.

I think thieves have much bigger fish to fry and are going for the 20k plus cars like the .:R and the Focus RS.

Not really worth the hassle of stealing a 5-8k car for them.
