I'll be replacing the standard CD/FM single din radio in my Peugeot Partner with a double din DAB Carplay unit in the next couple of days - not overly flash, £260.
To make the installation easier/neater, I'll be removing part of the upper dash. Would it be a good idea to screw the cage to the the unit from the top, making it difficult to remove it using the normal keys? Removing the top of the dash isn't difficult - it just clips in. But it's not likely a thief would know that, or how it's 'stuck'.
I can't make up my mind whether it's better to risk a mangled dash or a stolen radio in the event of a break-in. I'm not even sure if nicking radios is even a thing any more. There doesn't seem to be any security on these aftermarket stereos - not even a code if disconnected from the battery.
