ABSTRACT:
A method and system for deterring theft of a vehicle lamp component can include a flexible member that can be permanently or semi-permanently attached to a vehicle lamp such that valuable portions of the vehicle lamp are destroyed if/when unauthorized detachment of the lamp occurs. The vehicle lamp can include a light source, electronic circuitry such as a ballast, and electrical wiring interconnecting the light source and the ballast. The antitheft method and system can include connecting a cable at one end to a vehicle structural member, and forming a loop in the cable to encircle the electrical wiring interconnecting the light source and the ballast without allowing passage of at least one of the light source or the ballast through the loop in the cable.
