Park in well-lit areas and close to curbs to deter access underneath your vehicle.
When possible park your vehicle in a garage
If you have a home video surveillance system ensure it captures where your vehicle is parked.

Ask your mechanic to engrave your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on your catalytic converter.
