Looking for new fresh ideas to defeat the parking barnacle so far the only possible solutions I have heard and thought about.

Method 1: turn on windshield defroster for 30minutes on max heat then slide a credit card shim under the suctions Method 2: wrap the whole barnacle in aluminum foil to block the GPS signal Method 3: jam the signal with a WiFi jammer although these are hard to come by especially in the us and don’t recommend

    Sorry to move that post on you, I didn’t see you had replied already. Search ‘cutting foam with hot wire’ about the 12v. The device might phone home as soon as it detects loss of vaccum in the suction cup.

        third idea, a cheap cordless drill, drill into the back of each vacuum cup to break the seal and it will just drop off.

          Just time consuming and has a built in alarm so it would be limited time to drill other suction

            Its polycarbonate - should be about 20 seconds per hole.
