As a new subscriber can anyone offer advice regarding the security of the catalytic converter on my 2009 Peugot. I am staying in an area where there are weekly thefts from vans and I need to do something quickly before mine disappears too.
Can anyone recommend a system for me to purchase that I could fit myself (am relatively handy). Have looked at the Catclaw device which seems expensive at £300.00.
Any advice gratefully received.
Welcome along. If you are fairly sure that you are likely to have your cat nicked and a lock is £300, would this be cheaper than the policy excess and resulting increase on your insurance for a £2000 claim? Plus the general arseache of sorting it out? Personally I'd advise paying the money and sleeping soundly
Hope this helps
Mark

Thanks to those who replied. I would point out that a technician has advised me not to replace the catalytic converter with a short length of pipe as the converter removes the hydrocarbons from the exhaust and without the converter, over time the exhaust system will become contaminated by the harmful carbons resulting in probable failure of the MOT
Last night at 6.12 requested info on a deterrent for our catalytic converter. Just discovered it has been stolen. So very angry...... grrrrrrr. WATCH OUT EVERYONE. Police tell us there have been more stolen this year than during whole of last?

Catalytic Converter Catclaw update from last night!
Since posting last night, I received 3 written replies and a personal one from burgler bill, who stole the catalytic converter from my van.
My worst fears were realised before I had time to purchase any security device.
Feeling angry, whilst waiting for police to call... grrrrrrrrrrr
Do you mean that the thief actually wrote a letter to you telling you that he had stolen the cat from your van. was it first class or second class stamp.ah the only way is Essex.
all joking aside,sorry to hear the b***ted got away with it.

ps.are you sure about the information, it will be a while for contamination to build up.
