Likely most of the people ripping stuff off at one point in time worked at installing security systems and know how to work around them or they have a buddy that knows how to.
My approach has always been add a simple switch to interrupt power to the starter, the fuel pump, the ignition, whatever is easy.
A little imagination and a relay or two and you could leave the keys in and not be worried.
Examples;
-When you apply park brake a dash light comes on, use a feed from this circuit to close a relay that allows ignition power to the starter.
-Same can be done with power from brake light switch, park lights, work lights etc, a simple toggle switch hidden or not does the same thing,
Set up a customers Camaro so you had to flip a toggle switch and push the cigarette lighter in to close a relay that supplied power to fuel pump.
Be creative but you don't need to get too fancy, stupid and intelligent people alike will never when in the heat of the moment of trying to steal something stop and think; Do I have to hold the power window or seat switch to get this thing to start?
Factory and aftermarket security systems are predictable and can be worked around.
It is the unknown that will thwart the best of them.
