View Full Version : Snap-off

I'm just wondering if anyone here's got a Snap-off wheel hub?
I'm considering it as a means of security (although knowing how thick car thieves are, they'd probably try driving it without a steering wheel :p)
Do people rate them? What do peeps generally think?
I don't mind carrying the wheel round with me.....less hassle than I'd get if the car was nicked.....and where's the best/cheapest place to get one?
Cheers.

They are a unbeatable immobilser really aint they. You can't take it any where with no steering wheel. Well, unless your a pro thief but what pro's nick nova's!!!!!

i don't think u even have to carry the wheel around with u as they have a key to take off the wheel and put it back on so u can leave the wheel in the boot.
not 100% sure, just remember reading it somewhere

Yeh....I was looking at the "very amateurish" Snap-Off website last night (I'll design them a new one :D)....and read about how they use a key to lock them on and to prevent other wheels from being fitted.....each one is unique.
I just need to find the best place to get one now.....Carnoisseur sell them I think....I'll have to get a catalogue.
Failing that, there's SmartCar in Nottingham.....I'm off down there on Sunday anyway so I might pay a visit.

Don't bother with Demon Tweeks as they got my order wrog 3 times. In the end I drove to Wrexham and sorted it out my self. The key is rubbish though.
