Locking your car with nothing in it is not the best policy. When I used to mange a large run down apartment complex I had one tenant who never locked his car. When there were break-ins and there were a lot, his car was the only one to come out unscathed. The glove box would be open, any loose change would be gone but never any damage. Cars that were locked had windows broken, doors busted etc even if they had nothing valuable in the car because the thieves did not know there was nothing valuable.
I used to keep my tour Pak and saddle bags locked on my Harley until one night some one broke the lock off to get to my ball cap. Cost me $1000.00 to learn to leave everything unlocked if you don't have anything of significant value inside. I have two convertibles I never lock the doors on. I would much rather replace change and CDs than replace a top.
