Nick, I agree. If you've ever had the door panel off and seen the lock mechanism, it is quite flimsy. It's an easy pry for a slim jim, unfortunately. But, on the fortunate side, the alarm did do its job. A considerate thief is a very nice thing to have -- in other words, they didn't break your fixed glass, like some I've heard about.
