Does Anyone Still Use "The Club"

I'm watching Swingers for the first time (after many years of hearing people reference it) and just realized something: The Club seems to have become extinct or at least an endangered species. I don't think I've seen one on a steering wheel in I-don't-know-how-many years.

Do people still use those things? Why do they seem so rare nowadays? They used to be on every other car I'd walk past.

(Boy, I'm starting to sound like an old fogy.)

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

That's quite odd- I just watched Swingers again myself a couple of days ago on Netflix. you're so money, baby.

I think The Club died out in the early 90s when it was realized how easy they are to circumvent.

Totally forgot I used to have one that was electrified and would shock you if you touched it without using the remote to disarm it. ... Ah, it was called the Auto Taser:

I have one in my car - haven't used it in years - but it's always there - just in case.

The only time I use it is in areas I'm not familiar with or when I know I'll be away from my car for more than three or four hours - like a day at the beach or something. It saves me from thinking, "I haven't seen my car in over 5 hours, I hope it's still there."

What a money-making gimmick-invention that was.
