They are probably the best lock around but unfortunately on my MY99 with the Momo steering wheel this Disklok damaged my steering wheel every time I put it on. It was too tight and scuffed the top of the steering wheel constantly. Therefore I had to sell it in the end and by a Stoplock Pro which fits nicely and is also a great lock.

My old disklock which i bought 7 yrs ago fits the m99 momo wheel fine.
Iv just bought a new one for my run around and its to tight on the scooby.
You need to buy size medium.
Must be a slight design change between the old and new.

Know what you mean re scuffing steering wheel - I use bubble wrap round the wheel first... I kow this is asking for a p*ss ripping - but my steering wheel no longer gets dented (dents slowly came out anyway) or damaged!!!

Yep, the Disc-Loc is a great anti-theft device. I was sick of buying Jap imports that had no alarm/immobiliser system fitted whatsoever and haven't always been able to stomach £300 plus for a Cat I device...
Mine's done me proud on a Starlet GT Turbo and now my STI Type R. I have the size 'small' one and that fits the wheel fine.
Don't know about bubble-wrap etc. The device is meant to spin fairly freely on your wheel, so theifs can't get a purchase on it to give it a good twatting.
It's been tested in loads of performance car mags over the last decade and usually rated as the best...

Brilliant kit
I think your disklock is about as good as these things get.
It will take a villain about 45 sec or a minute with a bolster and chisel to chisel it off.
That is too much noise for most situations - £100 to sleep easy in your bed.

I can testify they are VERY hard to remove (don't lose your keys!).

You still want it to spin around the steering wheel though,to avoid or to at least make the problem mentioned by Mark Ward more difficult.
Try before you buy...

1. the steering wheel cant be controlled whilst the disk loc is on.
2. it is much more challenging to try and tamper with the lock due to movement
