Hold do you disable a GPS on a strangers car?

This is research for a book. I need to know how to disable a GPS. Can I disconnect the battery, then hook the battery back up and drive the car? Will the GPS come back on by itself? I need it to stay disabled.

If you take the battery out of a GPS it would have no recording of when or where you drove the car.

the GPS has a separate battery?

It can. If it is portable! Then again if it's portable any dumpster will do.
AND the new i phone s will answer this for you.."where do I hide a body" giving you several choices!!!

Think that would first require breaking into the vehicle and then driving it off leads to charges of Grand Theft Auto which will buy you jail time wear yourself out because the GPS will be the least of your worries then.

It's for a novel,the charactor already knows how to steal it. Just don't want it traced or found. He has to find a solution to this little problem. He is a very bad man, and doesn't get caught for years. He has to be good at what he does.
