All together now-OCD?
Nope, I occasionally keep a small hand gun there.


Or, if you have a manual transmission, leave the gearshift in "Reverse" and the Screen button is disabled, even when car is powered off. Even most Corvette owners don't know about this 'feature'.
Thanks, tried this on my '19 Z. This does work but the shift into reverse must be done with the car on.

Great ideas. I did not know about the reverse feature. I also keep a small handgun in that compartment, hence my original question. Anything to deter a thief in a quick smash n grab is helpful, and this would be a very low cost modification!
