My car got broken into
People living in san mateo, becareful, because someone broke into my car last night and stole the change in my ash tray and garage opener, I think these ppl are smart as they stole the garage opener so they can break into my house to steal other stuff.
I have called the san mateo police and reported this incident and I have named a couple suspects. Sigh this is a terrible thing to have happened.

You can jimmy a door w/o leaving marks. With the right tools its cake.
Also, never leave anything in your car like house keys or garagedoor openers... because your registration has your address on it
There is no law that says you must keep your registration in your car at all times. But you must be able to present it when requested by an officer.
Sorry, man

but I can definitely see situations where it would happen. Maybe it would be better to have a fake one on the sun visor, and keep the real one inconspicuously hidden elsewhere in the cabin...

If I were you I would do two things:
1. Until I could get around to it, pull the rip cord to disconnect my opener and then lock my garage door down somehow.
2. When I got around to it, reprogram the codes for the door and remote. I think this info should be in the manual.
Good luck, man.

I guess if your car is parked outside, you really shouldn't need a garage door opener but I can definitely see situations where it would happen.

Want to not have your house robbed is pretty realistic
Hide it well or get a dash-integrated remote.Of course, if its parked outside your house, they can jimmy your car, push the garage door button and are in the house w/o having to break a window or jam a door.
