<p>We had a spate of these on the other side of Green Lanes early this year. Us and at least 2 neighbours had random stuff nicked out of our cars with no sign of damage. When I reported it to the police they said our car was too old for a fob scrambler, but local police have since said that's what is happening. You need to report it. We had 2 car seats and isofix bases stolen, cost us 800 quid to replace them. </p>

<p>Interesting. But not very practical for routine locking up.</p>
<p>So best is to check if lights flash as in Justin's post below.</p>

<p>Ah, I'm wrong. Theres one hidden in the door handle. You have to pop a panel off.</p>
<p>Glad you asked actually, I had no idea :)</p>

<p>We have had one or two incidents on Pemberton too. I chased a guy out of my neighbour’s at at 2 in the morning once too. </p>
<p>I am curious. When you use the fob to lock the door my cars’s Side lights flash to tell me it is locked. When they use the disruptor will my car still flash it’s lights or does it completely block the signal to lock the car so the doors never even try to lock?</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">This happened to us today on Hewitt. They made off with a bag containing de-icer and some country and western cds. At least they didn't break a window for such precious bounty.</p>

<p>O no, terrible feeling is it not? They left the Tomtom sat nav and all the CD's behind - must have been interrupted. Glad you can still rock that ABBA sound :) </p>

<p>Had the same thing in Connaught Road a few months back. Luckily no valuables left in car, but they cleared out all useful items from boot and glove compartment - deicers, anti freeze, sunglasses etc.. Left my ABBA CD though so not all bad :-) </p>
