Default Hidden in plain sight - secure garage door opener

I took the keyless entry number pad that is usually installed on the side of a building and placed it in the drivers door pocket. I pick it up and type in the code and the garage opens. If someone finds it when the top down they can steal it, but they can't open the garage door without the code number. I reviewed all the cool ways people hide buttons, but if you are breaking into a car you are looking for hidden stuff.

It's simple, secure and easy.

Good idea for a quick fix but the addition of a home-link or the link above makes it a little more permanent and no looking to get the door open.

I just slipped my door opener under the roll bar cover. There is a write up on here somewhere showing exactly where. Works great and completely hidden.

I did the install like the one in the above thread link. Works great and with a black button, you don't even notice the install. Just looks like a switch to turn something on in the Jeep if you do notice it there. I like not having an opener unit hanging around inside the Jeep too, this keeps it out of the way, out of sight, but instantly available for use.
