If they want to get in, they will get in.  Its simple
to break in thru the sun roof.  Ive done it before in
seconds when ive looked my keys in.   Last year while
travelling across the US, we got broken into in DC.
The bastards broke the triangular wind window and just
reached thru to open the lock manually.  Lost tons of
climbing gear, guitar, 80 cd's...

An alarm might help, but alarms also alert stero
thieves that there might be a nice stereo inside.
