Have had a Dipol gear lock (http://www.subaru-insured.co.uk/article.asp?id=17) fitted to my new motor.

Subaru Insured class it as the equivalent of having your car in a locked garage (on the STi(I think)). It's supposed to be as good as the Barrier Lock - which is highly recommended and used by the police.

I'll be picking up the car on Monday and hope to post a few pix's in the near future.

I don't think you can have too much security.

Here's my list;
Std Subaru alarm and immobiliser
Tracker Monitor
Dipol gear lock
Disklok

I'm also considering a Clifford BlackJax. Any suggestions? 5 Dobermans? Land mines?

Have also beefed up my home security as well!

Diskloc is the only one worth getting. The 'bar' types are removed in seconds by simply cutting through the steering wheel.

Costco is the cheapest place (I've found so far) £48 (inc VAT :-) ). You need a membership card.

Think Halfords are £80.

I've thought about buying a few from Costco and selling for £50, what you think ? :-)

Good idea F1. What about a Group Buy? But I'd charge a bit more - £60? For your trouble.

I got lucky - a mate has a Costco card for business use. But I would have paid the extra.
