Perhaps so, but what about a bank of four or five toggle switches, to make
a kind of combination lock? The combination would be hardwired into the
way you connect the switches, but you could make it changeable by using
sleeve-and-tab connectors.
When you leave the car, you simply turn all of the switches one way or the
other. When you want to go again, you turn SOME of them the other way.
With four switches, your thief has 16 combinations to try, and with five
switches (s)he has 32 -- assuming (s)he even thinks to look for the switches.
