This is the powerhouse Auto Lock, a Matic anti theft device. It's intended to be locked around both the spoke of a steering wheel and the gearshift lever, thus securing them together and preventing the car from being steered properly, according to the manufacturer. It quote instantly. Theft proofs your car. Now I think we all know this theft proof claim is a tad optimistic. There are obvious attack vectors, like cutting the lock, steering wheel or shift lever. We could also shin the locking mechanism you can see because this slides, it is spring loaded. But this is one of those cases in which picking is almost always going to be the fastest way in. We have two fairly low quality wafer cores. Strangely, they are keyed differently, so you actually need both of these keys to remove the device. But a jig lor will also do the trick. Thes juggler keys are used by inserting them into the key way and giggling while at the same time applying a rotational force. There we go. The 1st 1 is unlocked. Let's get the second and the second is unlocked as well. So as you saw, opening these cores is absurdly easy, and I think it's pretty clear why these were sold out of the dollar bin at the giant food store. In any case, that's all I have for you today. If you do have any questions or comments about this, please put them below. If you like this video and would like to see more like it, please subscribe. And, as always, have a nice day. Thank you.
