amatuer thiefs **** me off.

Monday after work I decided to go up to the local Gold's Gym and work out. It was about nine pm when I got there. About 10, I came out to my car put my stuff in the back seat sat down and put the key in the ignition and went to turn on my CD player and I noticede that I could not find or see the blue glow from my CD player. Upon further investigation I found the stereo in its place but the dash around the A/C controls and stereo was pulled back. It was broken at the ashtray and just left sitting there. I also discovered the side of the bottom console( front passenger side) was ripped off all the way back to the seat. Apparently some punk pulled my window back enought to unlock my door and get in. Without the proper tools he could not remove my stereo. He did however destroy the console(top and bottom) and destroyed tghe A/C control panel . The guy who did this though is a complete idiot and really for the sake of mankind needs to be run over or killed by one of his homies. I say this because if he had looked in the actual consol he would have disovered all my CD's and if he had bothered to notice the phone charger he would have also found a phone on the end of it under the seat ext to the amp which runs back to the sub box. Apparently that was too much work. Okay I feel better. No I do need to know where I can get the entire center console from at a decent price. I want a new one, no scrap yard crap.

Thanks Drew

dang i hate it for ya, that really blows especially the fact they messed it all up and didnt even take the freakin stereo just tore it all up for nothing.....but if i were you i would go check out the local junkyards and so on to look and see if you couldnt find some of that stuff for decent prices, and to look at the brighter side, maybe it will be an excuse to go look for a 4th gen console also

Same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. All they took was the faceplate and my camera. They neglected to see the 50= cds I had laying there, my two way radios, or the rest of my stereo equipment. Oh I forgot, they took the little plastic trim around the HU as well. *******s.....I swear

I know a guy who's friend had his car broken into. Instead of hitting the truck release button in the glove compartment they used a crow bar to pry the trunk open. Messed up his trunk and wasted their own time.

A few weeks before I bought my car, the guy that was selling it said some bastards busted the winshield, and took the stereo. He replaced the windshield and stereo, but one day, I locked my keys in the car The door was open a lil bit, but not enough to open it, just enough to latch it. I used a long, kinda thick piece of metal (like a clothes hanger, but thicker), and i unlicked the car. It showed me that I need to get an electric security system.

Yea well the bastards that try to jack our **** need to be shot. I say we start a thirdgen union or somethin to find and whoop these retards asses. Although that reminds me of my buddy's crap gettign jacked. Sunday morning in the parking lot at work, along a busy street. The retards broke his window and stole his 40$$ walmart headunit. I go out and was parked right next to him figuring mine was gone too only to find mine didnt have so much as a fingerprint on the window. I guess they figured maybe it was going to be too much work although i cant see that considering my sub enclosure is pretty much not mounted at all and the head unit cost me 300 with everything totallying 1500$$ get a real good alarm thats what i did when i bought the car havent had anything stolen out of it although it ha\s been brooken into alot.as long as nothings gone
