If something is on show the thief will see it before he breaks in and it is easy to empty the glovebox. I can't say if it would be effective as it depends on how desparate the thief is. e.g. If you live in an area full of crackheads then they might just drive away whilst looking through the window or find another way.

If you have had breakins before i would recommend an aftermarket alarm with a thatcham approval since this would reduce your insurance premium. Just my pennies worth!

I think it is an unnecessary expense - especially considering that miggies aren't worth much these days.

there would be a big performance hit, and it leaves accessibility concerns.

Getting people to use better titles is the answer I think

Thanks. I agree with you on the better titles.

This might have been discussed before but is it possible when you move your cursor over the subject line to have it pop up with the first few lines of the post. This would enable you to sift through quicker and view in detail the post that interest you more (e.g. when looking for specific info.)

I understand there maybe technical issues but was interested to have your comments.

I'm going off tangent here but I've just noticed in this thread that no one post count has gone up. Is that normal?

I have just got 2 new topic notifications in my inbox but all i can see is two messages a few months old. Can someone explain to me what is going on as I am being a bit thick?

You've ticked a box somewhere that you wish to be notified of any further post activity in a particular topic .....
