Willie has the right idea, it works for me. I can't lock my junker truck. I leave the keys in the ignition and no one bothers it. I never have a problem with losing stuff like clarinets because I keep them all in a duffel bag (big one with wheels) and just take it with me whenever I leave the car.

Another plus is that as you drive everyone waves, and uses all their fingers! I have no radio so I can't listen to clarinet music while I drive, and I don't have to fumble with a cell phone because I don't use one while driving (you shouldn't either). I play in the local college orchestra and I have to buy a $1 parking pass every rehearsal day. You are supposed to put it onto the dash board and lock up your car. I can't do that (no dash board) so I end up tucking it under the edge of the gas tank cover or under the windshield wiper blade. I keep expecting someone to swipe the parking pass and I will end up with a citation... but no one messes with it!

On the other hand, if you have to have a locking car you can put a chain from the handle of your clarinet to the keys... no one could forget and lock the clarinet inside a car could they?
