Excellent, well done for posting this so that anyone that was unsure exactly how to do it, now knows precisely what to do.
What's your next trick? Posting exact details on how to bypass immobilsers perhaps?
Here a tip - Keep this sort of information to yourself - It really is the biggest safety service you can provide.

Give the guy a break. The types of people that do steal cars/car parts are already aware of these types of tricks and more.
I wasn't aware of how easy it is to get the bonnet open but as a result of his post I am now. Fortunately my alarm will go off as it is an aftermarket one and I keep the pin switch clean.
Any more tips or info you wish to share are welcome

Having read numerous posts on here regarding thefts I would say the number one way to stop your car getting stolen is to
1. Switch your house alarm on at night (preferably a perimeter detection system which goes off before they get in)
2. Hide the keys.
3. Keep your car in a garage if you have one.
As for stopping car jackings I'm at a loss until perhaps we are allowed to carry guns.

If lots of information is posted on how these things are done, anyone who fancies nicking a scooby or parts of, can just look here and find all the information they need.
A better method, as suggested previously, would have been just to say "for security reasons, make sure you inspect the bonnet release alarm switch regularly"
No problem at all with people suggesting things we can do to improve car security, but a bit silly to post the method of how to bypass it.

My keys are in the 1st drawer of the side table in the living room, so no need to come upstairs looking for them.. Also don't over rev it and wake us up when you drive away please.
Thanks.
