The main wheels have locking wheel nuts but obviously the spare is a bit easier to steal. Will a locking wheel nut do for the spare or is there a better way of securing it from theiving hands?its a 1994 model with the orginal spare holder.

At the end of the day it is like anything else, if someone has set their mind to take it they will achieve it somehow so all you can do is make it as difficult as possible for them. I have always used locking wheel-nuts and a decent motorcycle lock, they could be removed but it makes it more difficult for them.
Fitting a cover also helps hide the fact you have a decent wheel/tyre combination as many only carry an old steel wheel & part-worn tyre as a spare.
