RJ, honestly i had my Jeep stereo system stolen all custom too much to list, the day i bought my altima coupe i had to leave my rx-8 at the dealer overnight only one who knew i had a box and amp were the employees looking at it. Next day stolen as well. I would hookup your car 2 fold because they would be looking to see if you replaced everything. myfriend installed an airhorn to his car alarm system under the car the whole block can here that effin thing. Jump out with the 9mm once the airhorn goes off!!!!

Maybe the thieves ran out of time - which is why they didn't take additional stuff - who knows?

It does suck when you have to deal with unnecessary BS - good luck with your situation.

I think you're right Cali, and that's why I was freaked out . I was like, these guys now know what type of BS security system my car has, they are gonna be back to finish the job. If they do come back, they'll find things are a little different!

Good news on the situation, they guys at ALLSTATE waived the 100 deductible! They worte me a check to get everything fixed, they even gave me more than what I paid for it. I found an even better unit online that I'm gonna go with. Should have it all back in the car soon!

Hey man , sorry to see this happen and I feel your pain. I just bought my A/C today super black 3.5se premium package with vdc and if I don't see it tomorrow morning well I'll get "medieval" on somebody -.- . Like everyone else after I read your post I was just concerned with how to keep it safe . If there is a recommendation you have toward that it will really be appreciated. I thought about your post I saw this morning when I was buying but bought anyway. Anyway I'm happy to hear how Allstate treated you seeing how I have them for insurance as well.

Take it easy

Damn that sucks dude. Me and my dad caught a guy trying to get into my moms suburban about 2 weeks ago in our driveway. The funny thing was that it was 7:30 AM and it was daytime. I almost gave the F*#KER a 357 Magnum Bullet in the A#*, but my dad told me that he wasn't worth it. So I knocked him on the floor and held the gun on his head till the cops got there. He was scared S*#TLESS.

Great to hear you have insurance dude. Those things can be replaced, but freedom can't. You know what I'm saying.

LOL... It sucks how people work their Butts off to have the nice things that they have and some idiot loser comes along and takes it in a matter of seconds. Pisses me off. If i knew any of guys and saw someone doing this I would probably react the same way.

Sadly enough, Im 99% sure I know exactly how they got in. If its exactly what Im thinking of, then I have to say that you would be surprised how many cars have that flaw built in.

Dude!! Just say how they got in man! I highly doubt a thief is cruising this site just for that information. Either way I would really like to know what these worthless losers did to get in so I don't get jacked.. Sorry about your troubles with this crap.

With the way they got in theres absolutely nothing you can do about it except put a super sensitive alarm with a notifier pager on it to let you know if something goes down.

if it's like the mazda 3 problem, all they had to do was put a swift kick on the door panel just below the door handle, and the door pops open... i dont remember what year 3 it was on, but i know mazda issued a recall and they installed steel plates in the doors... apparently the alarm wouldnt sound cause the door would unlock or something like that... when i was reading up on the 3 the forums said that it was easier if they put a pipe under the handle and then gave it a strong kick and it would pop open... I tried to email rob and ask myself, but he hasnt gotten back to me yet.

again if that is in fact the method then the only was to stop/prevent it from happening is to put a steel plate behind the body panel...

sorry guys, I didn't get around to emailing everyone. I've been a bit busy with insurance claims, work, the baby, etc. If you are interested, please send me an email, and I'll reply. It's easier that way! Again, it's not rocket science how they got in,I'm just amazed they were so clean with the break in!

And you didn't get arrested? It is unlawful to hold anyone at gunpoint against their will. It doesn't even matter if the dude is on your property or not, you can't hold him at gunpoint!

You know what, recently in the news someone (believe it was in TX) saw his neighbor's house being robbed, and called 911. the operator spent close to 10 mins I think on the phone with the guy trying to convince him not to do anything, and let the police handle it. the guy calling said he had a gun, and if the robbers start to exit the house before the cops get there, he is going to shoot them. minutes went by, and not even a siren in the background. the 911 tape was played on the news, and the neighbor said, ...I see them coming out, Im gonna shoot them. the 911 operator kept telling him not to do anything, they guy told the operator...Im not gonna let them get away with robbing my neighbor! He then took his gun outside with the cordless phone still on him, and you hear 2 or 3 shots ring out. He killed one instantly, and the 2nd was found a few blocks away dead from the gunshot wound. the city pressed charges on the neighbor. I never saw what happened in the long run, but thats how messed up this country is when it comes to being victimized. If you are being victimized or you see someone else being victimized, you cant do anything that may harm the person doing the damage or you will be in trouble! Makes no sense to me, but those are our laws. Victims have less rights than criminals if you try to defend yourself or someone else.

I take my camcorder and start filming to have proof for the cops and the insurance, and unless someone is in a life or death situation, you just don't go and KILL people because they steal.

Gotta agree with mcheddadi on that.. In the long run this is just 'stuff' even Rob said it himself. This is just 'stuff'.. it's really annoying htat people steal but when it boils down to it.. killing someone because they stole material possesions isn't fair. If the guy was dragging a kid into a car then shoot his *** but if he's dragging a tv or something you don't just shoot him. just my opinion ofcourse..

yeah I have to agree, it is just stuff... its VERY VERY annoying, and yeah you feel violated, but I def wouldn't kill anybody over material stuff...

Eric, you being ex law enforcement, I think you know the law better than any of us. So my question is, if I go down stairs with my weapon, and the guy approaches me with his vehicle as if to run me over, what do you do then? I only ask because where my car is parked, its kind of in a one way in one way out area. And if the guy trys to take off in a getaway vehicle, he'll have no choice but to come straight for me.

laws in california is very strict about shooting someone even in self defense cases, you'd have to be very convincing that your life was in danger. Also, say he was running toward you, even if you shoot him, it doesn't mean he will or can stop w/o hitting you
