when the alarm goes off the gear shifter disables plus starter/and or igniter(not sure), so its stays in park no matter what, i can't really tell you how here on this forum, if you wanna know how PM me

it doesn't matter if the car is drive-able or not. i don't know the kind of area you live in or whatever, but in chicago people straight up get their cars towed away and never see them again.
it sucks to say, but if they want it bad enough, they will get it. obviously do anything you can to keep the car from being started as easily, alarm system, whatever. but in some cases, it's just not enough.90 ACCORD EX..<-- MR thread

I did not see where your are from but thieves have been stealing Honda's for a very long time. Thieves will steal whatever they see as the fastest get away, and I do not mean which car can drive the fastest. Once they get the car running it is much easier to conceal a stolen vehicle then it is to explain what you are doing trying to start a car in the middle of the night without a key.
There is no such thing as a perfect prevention when it comes to stopping a thief before they get started. Best bet is layers of security, multiple things that are going to slow down a potential thief.
I have a titanium brake bar, similar to the steering wheel club but it prevents the brake pedal from being pushed in. I live on a fairly busy street, for the area, always park in the driveway and have a motion activated floodlight above the driveway.
Used to have a steering wheel club, lost the key one day and took my hacksaw to it, 5 min and I had it off just using the hacksaw.
Some people say that a "dummy" surveillance camera with a little red light is all you need, any idiot can usually tell which cameras are real and which are fake. If you want the thieves to think you have surveillance cameras get something that will actually do something for you instead of just blink a red light at your car as it drives away.
Things like removing the battery, unplugging a wire/cable, pulling the ECU, pulling a fuse, etc only slow the would be thief down. That's the point but you need to have more then just one little thing. Yeah it may take you a little longer to get going in the morning but if you are that concerned about your car being stolen reinstalling everything in the morning should not be a problem.

everyone in this thread has great ideas. if u do all of them the thief would be so agrivated he would just give up and take what he can on his feet. loose the red rims and anything that makes ur car seem like u have alot of aftermarket parts. u wanna advertize ull be a target. make sure u have a functional alarm light blinking at all times.
BTW no one mentioned the DIY fender hood latch reroute.

there goes the thief and go report to your insurance that someone blew your car up.
