I got a set of these a couple of months ago. They're good quality and will stop kids stealing you caps.

Just after I got mine walked past a window and saw a couple of kids trying to take them off - but they couldn't

A few angry words later and the kids were off, and they haven't tried again (successfully anyway)

Just ordered some. Seems like a good idea to me, given that two of mine have been nicked. Plus, they look cool!

Nicked :(

I bought some anti - theft ones from Richbrook for my first Mini. They were stolen after about 3 months. I've given up on the ones that look nice and I've gone out and bought a bag of rubber ones!..Yes, even the rubber ones get stolen

Turned out all white in the end

Had mine stolen on previous car. The grub screw just sits on top of the thread, so it doesn`t actually lock it into position.
