It's hard to see but at both ends of the catalytic converter I have attached 1/4 steel cable which is wrapped around the ends. The cable is then bolted unto the chassis. A determined thief can steal anything but I hope what I have done will deter a thief from considering stealing my converter. If they were to try and remove the converter they would need to bring a grinder and a saw along with tools to un-bolt the brackets and cable. I did not take off the heat shield when I painted the converter but there is paint that does hit the converter through the slots. I have considered adding one of the motion detector alarms but I am not sure how well they would work. Will critters set the alarm off?? Perhaps one of our fellow PC colleagues can provide their experience with alarms
