anti theft wallet (keyless entry) and software updates

[John0021]

Hi folks. I’ve just bought a clio 200 sport on a 62 plate. Can somome please recommend the best anti-theft wallet/pouch for my key? I’ve seen this one in Halfords (see link below). Also, what’s the best steering lock available? Finally, just curious, how do Renault fair with other manufacturers in terms of these cars being stolen in this way? Where the theif is able to pick up the signal of your key inside your house? Do I need to go to the Renault garage for annual Renault software updates? Does anyone have any experience of this?

The stop lock pro won’t fit the 200 wheel, I’ve tried and it just locks the horn on.
So maybe you’ll have to fit the huge one that covers the entire wheel.

I’ve been on these forums for years and you hardly ever hear of a Clio getting stolen but I appreciate your concerns to secure the car.

So true, my cousin in South Africa has a 250 and he doesn't even have an alarm because no one steals them and that's saying something when crime is so bad put there lol

Stick one of these on it mate - all of mine have one on. They are Cat 3 Thatchan rated.

2nd recommendation for the disclock above. Had one for years.

Yep, I have one on the Impreza.

Bought a mint one with all of the key's off of eBay for £50, great deterrent if nothing else.

No worries mate

If they want it, they'll have it.

Disklok is a good deterrent, though.

re: keyless, doesn't sticking them in the microwave create a suitable barrier?

We use Mission Darkness faraday bags for our landrover (got them from amazon), work perfectly, car won't open if you're stood next to it with the keys in the pouch
