so everday at work, i park my car at a TGI Friday's parking lot not even a football field away from my job. see the dealership i work at has a million cars on the dealer parking lot so alot of employees just park there cars at Fridays. so i start work at 9 and im outside of the building most of the day and dont see anything suspicous, then when my co-worker comes back from his lunch break he notices my window completely smashed and my alpine head unit jacked, glass all over the ground and all over my interior. i was absolutely livid, i dont think ive said so many curses and ethnic slurs in such a little time in my whole life. so i called up the police and the took down all my info and what not, so i questioned people at TGI Fridays and the shady guys at the detail department at my job, who happened to be in the parking lot when my co-worker saw my car. so yea thats it, i fucking hate new jersey sometimes, i sometimes envy you guys out there in the country where the people dont even know what a Honda/Acura is. the majority of this state is a bunch of inconsiderate derelict pieces of trash. i dont know what else to say other than this really sucks and makes me regret and question why i spend money on my car???

 

Fuck man sorry to hear about that. Your Alpine isn't detachable?

 

idk it wasnt mounted securily, nothing really held it in to well. this was probaly the easiest steal for these thieves, factory alarm and just a matter of ripping the head unit right out.

 

sucks man. similar shit as happened to me so i know how you feel

 

ugh! sorry man

 

i hope that never happens to me, i would personally rather just have them come up to me and say they're gonna take my radio instead of having to clean up broken glass in the interior and getting the window replaced

 

fuck that. I'da gone apeshit on some stupid motherfucks.

 

i could only imagine the jail time i would be facing if i saw someone doin that to my car..WOW

 

o man me too, i wish i had an idea of who could have taken it, or else i would fight to the death, even if i get my ass kicked, ive been jumped a few times, it would be worth getting jumped for ghost, just to prove a point.

 

that blows, ghost. did you ask the tgif if they had a cam in the lot? longshot, yeah, especially since it's a day later and prolly recorded over (even if it was there and recording), but even if it wasn't pointing at your ride, mebbe it was pointing at the exit/entrance, coulda caught something/someone fishy?
anyway, that sucks big1. try not to let it eat you up too much, tho, stay good.

 

That sux bro

 

damn ida been pissed as hell! i hope tgif has a camera and we can get some sort of info on who stole it then go and have an acurazine meet at their doorstep to beat their ass!!!

 

That sucks man. But it happens everywhere, just not in Jersy. I had my car broken into twice and one of my cars stolen. So I know where you are coming from.

No doubt I would kill a fool if I saw them doing that shit.

 

damn...

 

no cameras already asked, and i was asking some of the customers that were eating at the time too, i probaly interupted their meals but i didnt really care at the time

 

does your cl have glass meters ? When my glass broke my alarm went nuts !!! if i make too much noise or reach just the right octive..they go off when the locktronics is activated

 

probaly not my alarm is completely stock, but i dont get why my alarm didnt go off went they had to open the lock from the inside to pop out the radio, i def would have heard it and the stock alarm will beep forever???

 

no, it quits after a certain amount of time. I belive its around 55-60 seconds.




dam..................gone in sixty seconds

 

damn i thought it would be longer than that. these thieves must have been rookies, they could have easily have stolen my 300 plus dollar radar detector and my ipod nano. they were defenitly the pieces of shit that live in the projects a few blocks away. fucking bastards probaly sold my radio for a few bags of blow.

 

question???

will all the wiring from my alpine head unit plug right into my stock radio, of course i have to get my radio code for it to work again, but will everything plug right in?

 

if you had wire adapters on there to get convert the wiring from acura => alpine then all you have to do is take the adapters off and put the old unit back in (thats if they didnt take the adapters already in which case you just plug it straight in). unless you cut the wires to adapt them to the alpine, but you wouldnt do that, right?

 

i believe i did cut the wires to adapt them to alpine.

 

Yes, I know the heart's fury when you've been trampled on liek that.
Often during my college years, I would hang out at my parent's business -
usually for a free meal. One day a couple punks not over 19 held us at
gun point for a couple of hundred bucks from the register....
We had 5 times as much in our wallets. Even at gun point, it took all
I had not to jump the fuckers and blow their knees out. If it weren't for my
lil sis and bro in the other room, I may have done so.

I could go on and on as I'm sure most of us could.

As and aside. I have a 99 3.0CL premium. I bought this car primarily to keep
miles off my IS300. Didn't drive it much or know much about it really.
Does the premium package come with a 6-Cd changer in the trunk?
I could have sworn there was one. My dad doesn't know either as he doesn't
listen to music in the car. The car spent a consider amount of time at a body
shop after being severly rear-ended. Now it doesn't have a changer and I
have no proof if it ever did.

 

No, the changer did not come stock

 

this sucks so bad my stock head unit sucks and the $220 for repairs really blows too, im defentily rigging a killswitch for my car now, im really paranoid now.

 

i can't say that enough.damn shame you cant have anything nice without someone putting their grimy paws all over it. sorry ghost.......

 

If they catch that thief, I hope they shoot and execute him then audit and tax him to death!

 

trust me guys, im holding back half the shit i feel about the situation, i honestly think ill get banned if i express my tru feelings. the repairs really set back my plans for this car, just because some godamn rookie thief crack head needed a few bags of coke.
