• Get your converter etched or engraved with your informatio­n. Thieves like to steal converters and sell them to scrap yards. If your converter has your informatio­n on it, and not the thieves’, it could keep them from even taking it because it makes it harder to sell.

• Park your vehicle strategica­lly, in a well-lit area and use a secure garage when possible.

• Make use of a car alarm system if possible.

• There are catalytic converter theft prevention kits on the market that create a cage around the converter, making it harder for thieves to steal them.
