Spring is here, and I enjoy riding with the windows and sun-roof open.
I often leave them open when I park, but I lock the car.
What protection is afforded (IE ignition lockout) by locking the car even though the windows are open and somebody opens the door by reaching in and unlocking the door manually?

Yes that happens! I have first-hand experience with the LS 430, reaching through the open window to unlock. LOL the alarm went off, the door lock almost pinched my finger as it kept forcibly auto-locking!
Very embarrassing as it happened in a Costco parking lot with everybody watching. ![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Are you too lazy to close the windows and sunroof or what? Why don't you just leave some expensive valuables and cash on the seat to make it even more temping to steal?

There is a passive arming option that will automatically arm the alarm 30 seconds after the key leaves the vehicle with the driver's door closed. Not sure if this passive arming mode also locks the doors when it arms. To go along with this there is a programmable entry delay before alarming when passively armed, instant, 14 secs or 30 seconds.
