If someone REALLY didn't like you AND you had all of the security gizmo's mankind has ever produced for the vanagon at your disposal, you'd still have your oil filter exposed. A couple of twists and it is ready to fall off. One can only be so vigilant and then it becomes paranoia. My 2 cents.

I have always thought that one of the vulnerabilities of the vanagon is the
easy access to the oil filler from behind the license plate. If someone
wanted to they could make a mess of an engine with little effort. has anyone
tried securing this flap?
