you guys are wasting your time. a-holes dont care where your car is parked, they will look for it and key it anyway. especially if you park in more than one spot and particularly if you park diagnally. I am not going to look for 'the' spot. what happens happens. but dont let me catch you.

thats not really true... I park my car carefully and out of the way, and never got keyed. My bro parks at location most convinient for him (and not others) and his car gets keyed regulary...

Yeah, works much better as a coin holder without the ash tray
