Just pass a law that makes it a 10 year mandatory prison sentence for converter theft (with no chance of parole meaning you have to serve all 10 years no matter what) and you'd see that shit stop immediately. There's simply not enough of a punishment being handed to these scumbags.

Had a shield on mine and they still managed to take it, but had to work for it. Laws are to lenient on assholes.

How exactly did they get around it, slide it out or cut the bolts?

She said 1-2 grand lmaoooo I just paid $5000 to replace mine

Why can’t they make the people who makes cars a barrier for the catalytic converters,

They need to invent a peice that lops off someone's hand if they try to steal it. Problem solved.

@@LOLmusics You can do it yourself, bear traps cost $11 each, attach a few of them onto the converter & pipe around using fence wire easy peasy.

I think a shield delays cat theft. With the right tools, it can be stolen anyway but it would take more time and noise. It works for me since two years now after the original cat was stolen.

Or you can have an aftermarket converter. They aren’t worth anything. (Maybe $10 resale) only OEM converter are worth money.

Smith and Wesson makes some very good tools that will stop thieves dead in their tracks.

So a one time fee of $1000 and you can turn in hundreds of converters legitimately? Considering what they make in profits, this wouldn’t deter anything sadly

Use the RICO Act on those crooks.
