Re: Underhood security question

Rich,

The easiest, least expensive, and most importantly - least invasive is to 
use a short braided steel line that is plastic coated (to prevent any 
scratches or abrasion to parts) with the lock loops on each end.  Use a 
small  keyed padlock (such as a Master Lock) and you are done.  These 
braided steel lines w/loops can be purchased as a cut-to-fit for your 
particular application from Home Depot and other such hardware outlets...

Measure your length needs correctly with a piece of rope and have them cut 
the braided steel to match.  Do it right and it will not hang down, be 
hidden from view, and only you know where to reach with your key to unlock. 
Been using this method since '68.
