Thieves are mostly opportunistic, anything that can slow them down will tend to deter them.
At the end of the day, if they want it they will get it, but why make it easy for them.
This is what I intend to do with my winch. I also have just paid out $1500 for LED spotties, now I could have just left the original nuts on or just used one set of security nuts, this will make it easy for them to get.
But instead I have the original nuts, then security nuts, both are different and then Nylock nuts and I have super glued the covers on.
If they want them they will have to have the right socket/spanner for the Nylock nuts, then they will need each security socket and lastly they need another size socket/spanner.
It's all about creating something that will take time and will take a lot of effort, this will deter 99%.
