Never leave it in the car is my advice. If you HAVE to leave it in the car, at least toss it into your spare tire well - about 1/2 the chance thieves will bother to look there compared to the glove box, or center console . . .
if someone wants your VIN number, all they have to do is look thru the front windshield on the driver's side of the dash..
people have given some good advice. putting it with the spare tire is a great idea, just a bitch. but better than getting it solen! i've been really lucky with my V1, and the area i live in is also pretty safe, but i'm gonna consider hiding the V1 elsewhere in the future. thanks for the tips!
