Easy way to test. FOB in the bag. Does the car recognize it?

There are metal lined bags that are a faraday cage.

WTHs film?), I wonder if they'd be listed for cheap on EBay or somewhere else.

As far as the car goes, can a FOB be detected by the car if the car battery's disconnected? If not, then that may be a secondary way to block the scenario you're describing, at least long enough to make those thieves move on.

Of course, that ain't gonna protect against us old timers with shims and hot-wire capability.
