DIY Fake Recycling Box Makes Your Car Less Susceptible To Break-Ins

The best way to make your car less tempting to would-be thieves is to avoid storing your valuables in it. If you absolutely have to, though, this little DIY trick will help you hide them in plain sight.

Of course, this doesn’t guarantee your car will be safe, and we’d still recommend keeping valuables on your person whenever possible, but this should help keep your car among the less attractive ones on the street.
