Guys, looking at beefing up security on the tratter. Now, I know there has been issues of late with pedal locks, but are any of them any good at all ? This will be in addition to other security stuff already in place, but it's only worth it if they're any good ! Clutch claw is out, I'm looking at the 'ardcase type of guard. Anyone got anything better ?

Cheers !

I like the look of these too, so like you will be interested to hear opinions of it. Usually , it goes something like 'I know someone who can get them off in in 29 seconds without waking up my Rottweiler!

Did a bit of googling last night abut the ardcase device and read a few comments saying that they cut through the pedals and drive it away using the stumps.
The X-eng one looks like it covers all of the pedals.

I Have the Xeng one and its great
like the fact that I don't have to p*** about lifting the lock into place
it just simply folds back down and it becomes part of the floor

Does the Xeng, have rubber on the inside so that when it folds down it is not just metal your feet rest on?

Cheers

No but I have cut the old rubber mat to shape and stuck it onto the inside, I'll get a picture later for you

They look canny and at a decent price. About how heavy is it, Grezzer? Just wondering cos the Mrs will be using it a lot. Can't find the weight on their website. Cheers.

Sorry for the mess but just took a picture so you can see it in place with the mat

That works like a good un,

Looks nice and neat, I see you have no matting / insulation under the pedal lock when ii is in the "driving " position, is that right?

Cheers

It is how I have mounted mine but I suppose it could be bolted straight through the rubber matting already in place but that would be less secure I think

Looks pretty solid but for me at least it would lose out by being fiddlier to fit so I'd be less inclined to use it when only leaving the car for a short while whereas now is use the x eng one whenever I leave the car

this is the one ive got, its bloody brilliant!!
You can adjust the top and bottom with captive nuts so the entire space around the pedals is blocked off , the sides are very thick and substantial and there is no way you could cut the pedals off and drive on the stubs, because there is no access to the pedals at all!!
