Or, like I said in the second post:

A £5 RFID blocking pouch from Amazon will keep the keys 'dead' effectively - no signal being transmitted so no signal to be boosted. I use one and the key isn't recognised when standing right next to the car when its in the pouch, the signal is blocked completely
No need to faff about taking out batteries.

Use this even if you don't have comfort access, because they can just break the window and amplify the signal for keyless go.
