You missed the post where the perp has a history of arson i guess :P

No,--I saw that. But still, some people don't burn things just to watch them burn.

Once you know where the info is held in the code you can "fill in the blanks"
That's scary. Name your mileage, delete immobilizer, great.

He'll just add some servos, reflash the ECM, mod the GPS and just have the dam car drive away be it self.
