Exclamation Light theft. HELP!

I have a friend who has a 02 or 03. Not sure what year. He is forced to park on the street when he is at school. HIs lights have been stolen 2 times in the last month and as you all know they are crazy expensive. Any of you know a way to prevent the theft of these lights. Its getting expensive to get new ones.

Oh man, I haven't heard of any light thefts recently and thought the crimes had subsided. Guess not. Sorry to hear about your friends car. Unfortunately, there isn't much he can do about it. Acura has shock sensors for the lights, but if the punks really want the lights, no deterrent will work, especially since it only takes moments for them to rip out the lights. Only fool proof plan is to sell the car and get something else...
