Or result in your front door getting kicked in looking for the keys to the disklok.
Yep agreed, if the theives want the car that much they'll get the keys. Some s3's have been taken at gunpoint as a result of people hiding keys etc. This is serious organised crime, if they want the keys they'll get them
The trick -- to stop home invasion -- is to lock all internal doors and get good locks fitted.

If a thief(s) has to break through 3 or 4 heavily fortified doors and alarms and cameras and bright lights to get to you and your keys, they will almost always give up, and / or give you plenty of time to dial 999.

One-door security is never enough. Especially if you live in car-crime hotspots up north.
