I had some douchebags the other night try to get into my vette at around midnight. I'm always up real late, so I heard it. I came out. They ran and got into a vehicle across the street from my house. I ran after the car as they fled, and got the licence plate. Called the police and the SOB's where in custody within an hour.

Just unplug the CPU harness next to the battery. It literally takes 2 Seconds.
If you are paranoid you can always run an interupt switch to the Vats connector as well on 86 and newer vettes.
