This is not real legal advice but as far as I understand it, if they pull you over, you and everything in the car is subject to search. Especially if they had anything like a credible reason for the stop(and mostly that is on the officer's word). There are exceptions of course, that's why you get a real attorney.

I did some searching on the Internet (damn, I love the Internet) and it would seem that the above statement is incorrect. I found a number of interesting appeal court decisions that are worth reading. A number of people have already contradicted me but for something like this I thought it was worth pointing out I was wrong.
Cases I found interesting:
State v. Houze
State v. Boyd
