it is very simple..The rosette or other cute rings are basically decor..The point of the
911-Lockshield ™ is....
You have to remove the ignition tumbler to free the ignition switch metal rod which is inside the steering tube when the key is out and the steering is basically locked.
So, with the lockshield installed and the thief using the slide hammer trying to remove the tumbler , it is not possible as you can see on video on the previous page.
You ended up replacing the ignition switch but the car stays, if god forbids any as...e trying to take your 911.

It has saved many 911 here in Europe......and in the States too....

any details would have to be done in PM ,about removing or else....

about towing the 911 by pro thief..yes they are smart.Most of the time it is an inside job....i always suggest to park head on towards some wall or any place where the towing truck cannot access the front of the 911 .Turn wheel to one side.Hard to town it strait.
But to be honest who among us leaves their 911 for long period of a time alone?
Most of the stolen 911 here in Europe and England happens while the car is parked on big "secure" parking structures....a lot of them are every year stolen in Holland and Belgium because people do not have their own garage.
