Softail Slim seat security advice

I'm about to get a new seat for my slim. Its a custom seat that's pretty fancy. Does anyone know of any antitheft screws or devices. Thought I saw one somewhere

Both good ideas. I was thinking maybe a short security torx screw. Its a shame that we have to worry about ******** stealing seats off of bikes.

Problem with stuff like that is it becomes a temptation for people. I know you were joking but I have seen the helmet stickers that say stuff like that. Actually, lmao, a few of us rode to a bar one night. Parked next to a heritage softail. Dude had his cereal bowl sitting on the tank console. It had one sticker on it. It said something like, "is there life after death, touch this motorcycle to find out" we were all in the process of taking helmets and gloves off to go into the place. The rider of said bike comes out to leave. He was about 5' 5" and maybe 135 lbs.
