I'm aware of the NCIS scenes, what else you guys got?

I love scenes where a character hotwires a car by:

  • reaching under the steering wheel and pulling a panel off. It isn't held on by fasteners or anything, it's just like wedged in place.

  • A bunch of loosely coiled wires tumbles out. In front are two thicker wires that are cut, stripped and tinned.

  • The character strikes these two wires against each other like attempting to strike a match, mostly to make sparks.

  • The sound of a car engine turning over plays.

  • Climb in, shut the door, put it in gear and drive off.

The loose panels, the wires falling out… that sounds like my last car
