I was worried that I *wouldn’t* get it off and if I was too rough with it I’d be left with a half destroyed rotor. At least if I couldn’t get it off but it was still intact the car would still be driveable.

Tops are expensive to replace if someone cuts through it hoping to find something in the car. Might as well leave it down and let them lean over and take it (not that…

VIN Etching.

In business parking lots (i.e. where I dont leave my car very long) I do the “park far away” thing, walking doesnt bother me.
