Pros
Heavy weight. Very Secure.
Cons
Once installed, you will need a wrench to remove the license plate, to access the lock into the compartment. The logical place for that wrench is in the glove box, but with this unit in place, and the keys locked in the car, access will be a bit of a problem.

Pros
Fits well, made well, installs easily
Cons
If you are really locked out you need to carry a wrench to get the plate off and that is larger than the spare key is
General Comments
Needs to include simple nut replacement so that you can undo they and get in the box

Pros
Very strong, good for designed purpose. Easy to install
Cons
A bit tricky to set up security code. Original unit already was set to another number than indicated by directions to begin with. I had to replace the first with another unit at no charge. That surprised me.
General Comments
One email explaining my predicament with the first unit and within hours a reply telling me to keep it and another is going out to me that day. I received it the following 2 days. You cannot beat that kind of customer service!!!

just make sure you have a small tool handy to premove the plate. the tool can be hidden anywhere outside the car. and even if the plate is ripped off the stainless steel box can not be taken off because the mounting screws are internal and if you do not know the combination of the lock it can not be opened

Great way to have key available, if remote doesn't work or you have lost your keys.
Cons
Will need a screwdriver to remove license plate. Don't carry one with me. Could be a problem getting one .... would probably have to borrow one from a nearby driver.
General Comments
Can't really comment on durability or reliability. Time will tell. Hope we never have to use it, but nice to know we have a solution to what could be a big problem.

I changed the lock combo to my number as per the instructions. Now I am unable to unlock or open the key storage area at all. Its a poor execution of a great idea.
