I remember adding a kill switch to my CRX that depended on the faceplate being on the stereo. If it wasn't, the car would start then immediately stop. I miss having a faceplate as a key.
A person I used to know left his on, his car got broken into but all they had time to steal was the faceplate. Since you couldn't buy them separately this guy had the bright idea to go into the store, take one off a demo model, then pretend it was his from his car while walking out. Didn't work and he got arrested for shoplifting.

But 95% of us just took the face off and stashed it under the seat or something.
