Consider the following advice:

1. Park in well-lit areas where possible.
2. Park close to building entrances or the nearest road in public parking lots. This leaves your car in a location where many people can see it.
3. If you have a personal garage, keep your car parked inside with the door shut.
4. Consider video surveillance to your property over looking where you regularly park your car and/or a beam alarm system to advise if someone is near to your vehicle.
5. Install a catalytic converter-specific security device, have your cars vin number put on the catalytic converter or use a marking kit.
6. See if it is possible to adjust the security system on your car, if already installed, to activate from vibrations, such as those produced by a saw.
7. Be vigilant and report anyone acting suspiciously to the police.
