Leave no trace! Don’t leave any “sign” that there might be valuables “out of sight” in your vehicle, such as
docking stations or connector cables. Leave nothing in “plain sight” that might make your vehicle worth
“investigating” by a thief; not even loose coins or a CD. Very few auto burglaries are random – thieves see
something in plain sight that is valuable or hints of possible hidden valuables.
