Yes, and ANYBODY can easily remove it.
If you can always keep the car secure, it's comes down to aesthetics, and
I like the way the Dzeus (sp?) fasteners look.

Do they make Dzeus (sp?) fasteners, with security screws?
Like the security flat head screws, that the use in public bathrooms, you
can easily screw them in, but then you need a special screwdriver to
remove them.
