ABSTRACT:
An automobile ignition lock cover for steering column-mounted ignition locks includes a hollow cover housing having an open side to fit over the ignition lock. An L-shaped bracket has a first portion disposed inside the housing and fixed to the back wall of the housing. It also has a second, outside bracket portion that extends out through a slot in the lower portion of the cover. A chain is attached to the upper end of the cover. The free end of the chain is attached to the U-shaped shackle of an adjustable shackle lock assembly. The chain wraps around the steering column, and the shackle legs are inserted through one or a pair of holes in the outside bracket portion and locked snugly in place in the lock housing, which bears against the opposite side of the bracket or is attached thereto. The L-portion of the bracket is disposed inside the cover and extends forward under the ignition lock, to prevent the cover from being rotated.
