I have to admit, the main reason I'm making my midget lockable is so that if
anything does happen to it, and the insurance get the car back trashed, and
want the keys, I don't have to say that I never actually leave the car
locked and don't have any keys for it!
I'm not too sure about how they'd look on this!!

thief, and my prospective victim was sounding off at 130 decibels, I'd find
another victim. Point is, I know if I hear an alarm go off, I always look
to see at least where it's coming from. The amateur thief would probably
not want to attract any sort of attention.

Common sense things like this can save you from the average idiot.
