Where could I find such a device?
A friend of mine from Canada said they are supposed to be the best devices of this kind and I am on the look-out for one!

i hear with the club on, thieves just cut 2 slots in the steering wheel
then, the club is removed, making it useless. If they want your car, they'll find a way to get it, unfortunately.

The club sucks!!!! (more)
I spent 10 years installing car alarms as a hobby and the club is the most misleading marketing I have ever seen. Cutting the steering wheel takes too much time...sliding a metal tube over the long and of The Club and pulling back breaks the damn thing in half!!!! There is a new device out that locks the brake pedal thats much better, sorry dont know the name. For the most part you get what you pay for and for the 50 or 60 bucks that the club costs thats all the security you get!!!

You are talking about the "Unbrakeable Autolock."
I saw it on TV and I was intrigued by it.
Then I saw it in a store and I was about to buy it, but in the fine print was a list of cars that it won't work on -- including our Audi A4's.
Most cars have a relatively thin brake pedal shaft, and the Autolock slides over it.
But Audis & BMWs have huge thick brake pedal shafts, and the Autolock won't fit over it.
Too bad.
Nonetheless I still use my Club.

I know it won't fit on the A4 break pedal, how about the clutch?
