    Good?! If that really works anyone can break into your car.

    That is what I was thinking. There is no way I am hauling one more thing around in my purse. It already is super heavy.

    I'm thinking showing people how to break-in to cars over the Internet is probably not a good thing. But at least I know what every car thief in the world knows now!

    A good thief can get into your car faster than that. The tennis ball might work for the rest of us, and beast the several hours it took me using a coat hanger :-)

    I don't have electric locks on my car, mine are manual. I might test this tennis ball thing out on my fiance's car though .
