Think twice about leaving anything vaulable in your car.

its called arrogance.
any time your dealing with a radio frequency you have a fairly narrow band to guess at due to FCC regs ... after you figure out the specific freq's a little data capture will do ya.

Good luck telling any part of the auto industry about it though.

I'm surprised it took THIS long for it to become a trend ... the stuff to do this has been out there since BEFORE the key FOB
 
Interesting video.
I had my vehicle broken into last December.
My iPod and some other items were stolen.
Since then I purchased a console vault.
It is a 12 gauge cold rolled steel vault that fits into your console.
It has a hinged lid with a barrel lock.
It installs in about 2 minutes, and it is virtually impervious to break ins.
They are custom made to fit into your specific car or truck.
Now, if I have to leave my gun in the car when I go to the post office
or somewhere else I can't take a gun into,
I am confident that it will be there when I get back.

that is ... assuming your car is still there.
Omaha has enjoyed a pretty good string of auto theft lately. I'd just assume other places are seeing this too.

I guess you need a console vault and a boot for the tire, like the ones those northern cities put on cars that park illegally. Of course it might take you longer to lock up your vehicle that it would to run the errand, then of course you have to unlock afterwards. I always have trouble putting my pocket carry back in my pocket while in a vehicle.

CAR BREAK INS

It's getting so common in some areas here, people are leaving the doors unlocked to avoid having their windows broken & a note saying the doors are unlocked & there's nothing to steal inside.

The note is a good idea. I have a friend who had his window smashed even though the doors were not locked.

I normally do not lock the doors, unless I'm parked somewhere with A LOT of people around. Otherwise I leave them unlocked. If someone wants my dollar store sunglasses fine.

A potential problem with this - if your door is unlocked (this applies to at least all GM vehicles), a person with another remote can program it to your code in seconds, then will have easy access to your car anytime - even if you lock it for some reason.
 
I guess the next logical step will be to invent a device to by pass the "keyless ignition" and they will basically just drive away with your car and valuables like they owned it. Scarey
 
I leave my car unlocked, I don't keep anything of any value in it, and nobody would want the old stock stereo and cassette deck. I would rather have them just take the $1.39 in change in the console rather than break a window to get the $1.39.
