Off subject somewhat-I haven't even bothered to put an alarm on mine at least yet anyway. Never stopped anyone from breaking into my passed cars.

and I personally think low jack is bull shit
low jack IS bullshit... my friend used to install them when he first moved to florida. very easy to disable, anyone with half a brain can do it. and like said above if someone wants the car they will take it. for every system designed to prevent theft, there is someone smarter who knows how to defeat it, simple as that... and as far as the removable steering wheel goes, i know plenty of people who have simply used a large vise-grip to steer the car. believe me when i say its all been done before.
