I think I'll try sitting in the car with the windows up, arm the alarm wait a minute then move around and see if it goes off.

This summer I was walking past my X at work with some paperwork I needed to take home. As usual, I had the roof popped and the windows down about an inch. When I slipped the envelope into the slightly open window that alarm started.

I would check with them again on that one.
