Criminals Nabbed.

Police caught 5 people stealing headlights in Clifton, NJ for stealing xenon headlights, mainly from Nissan Maximas. Their age ranges were 16-21. This proves how easy it is to steal the headlights when you have teenagers ripping them off.

F*cking bastards, maxima people and TL people should be able to go beat them down in their holding cells. I bet they are all in a gang and they are actually stealing them for someone else.

Excellent. If I lived in that area, and had my headlights jacked, I know whose houses and cars I'd be visiting.

Those fuckers were lucky they were caught by the cops and not by the owners of the cars.

It's good to hear that they are finally catching some of these A$$holes. I just got my car out of the shop for having my headlights replaced. But those 5 A$$holes were already released on 25K bail.

It's kinda hard to steal TL headlights. The maxipad headlights though is cake I know cos I've done it. J/K!
Glad those bastards got caught. I have my trusty 2'ft mag light next to my bed if anyone ever tries to rip me off.

wow i definitely live 5 minutes away from clifton commons. im glad their busting down crime over there because it would be only a matter of time before it spreads to my town 0_0

this happens only at night? i can't imagine kids trying to steal headlights in a busy place like the commons. that place gets pretty busy all over.

thing about america, we dont bust these fuckers hard enough. if we threw them in for 20 years for stealin headlights, we wouldnt have this problem. hell, if we threw people in jail for 20 years for vandalizing ANYTHING belonging to anybody. we'd be in pretty good shape.
america's too lenient on crime

hahahahaha are you serious razzi? amrica is too lenient on crime. man ppl get electrocuted in US all the time for some random rasons. having a pipe gets you a year in jail or something rediculous. Canada is lenient on crime too much.
48 pieces of crack found on a person and he gets 1.5 years in house arrest. that would be 25 in max security in US hahaha

It's a thread from 2004. I'm sure the crooks have moved onto the next town by now.

LOL, when the Maximas first came out with the HID, they found out it was so easy to pop them out with a screwdriver. Nissan fixed it the next year.

BTW the reason why headlight theft has dwindled down so much is due to the influx of taiwanese HID kits in the market. Back in the day an HID kit set you back 400 to 500 dollars and these days you can pick one up from ebay for as much as $50. So the crocks have realized that why risk going to jail when you can spend $50 and get it the legal way .
