I also wonder if a "common" thief would recognize a homelink button?

2. But I have tried #7, it doesn't seem to be continuous. I will try again later today. Does anybody know of a definite continuous source?
3. I have been trying to find the fuse # for the lights in the car when the ignition is off, but the "Passenger compartment fuse panel" list on pg.231-232 of the manual doesn't seem to describe the fuse # for the lamps. Does anybody know which fuse # is coded for the inside car lamps?
4. I reset the tripometer to ZERO yesterday and deleted settings in the NAV/CD system by randomly unplugging the fuses, I don't want to do that again today without knowing I won't actually permanently delete some other features. Does anybody know if taking out these fuses will cause some unwanted memory storage on other systems?
5. Last question, I promise Do you guys think the 20mA current draw will eventually drain the battery in a bad way? Like if I had to go on a vacation for 2 weeks, will a constant 20mA draw cause a destructive drainage? I don't have a perspective on the significance of a 20mA draw on the system, so I am all ears.

However, fuse #24 (switched) is rated as 20A, and the instruction for LittleFuse add-a-circuit Fuseholder states "do not exceed 10A for original fuse" so I'm thinking of using fuse #29 instead. But then #29 is for backup-lamp and backup sensor so it's not as appropriate as using #24 which is an accessory circuit (for cigar lighter). Does anyone have suggestion for a relatively "safer" component or fuse circuit (10A or under) on the car that I should consider, so that in the case of damage, it won't severely affect the operation of the vehicle?
