I think any car less than 10 years old has bits of plastic shroud to
prevent the link wires from the interior handle from being
manipulated.

It doesn't work if the car is hard locked. Many cars have two lock
states these days, a "soft" lock where the interior handle will open
the door, used when driving through dodgy areas and a "hard" lock
where it doesn't and all the alarms and imobilsation is set. Often
the first press of a remote only performs a soft lock a second press
is required for a hard lock. There may be a time out on the soft lock
to hard lock if the car thinks it is empty, the ignition is off etc.


Not that works if the door is locked



or they use a bowden cable or dead lAny modern car has plastic bits
