Re: Anyone had tow hooks stolen?

Just as I've come to realize theft of my old truck has become a reality, I realize the same is true for many parts, such as hubcaps and tow hooks could be targeted. I've gone from feeling like the only guy on the planet wanting those parts (WTBs posted every issue in Pickups & Panels in Print in the '90s) to everyone on the planet (did I exaggerate?) wanting them. I do feel safe from theft where I live but will probably tack a weld or another idea I have. Grind on the bolt heads so a wrench won't fit. Use think washer so head can be ground off w/o scarring the hook (if I ever need to remove)
