I was asleep lastnight when I was woken up by my alarm going off at about 4 am. It's never gone off b4 so I turned it off and then locked my car again, right after that I hear a car speed off. I go outside and my dads grand prix and my tl have both their passenger windows shattered. It took HPD 2 hours to get to my house, Im gonna have then take fingerprints, I dont really expect anything from it but Im gonna do it anyways. I never leave anything in my car overnight so even if they wouldnt have left they would have had nothing to take. I hate people who are too lazy to get a job, so they steal from other people. There's my rant for the day.

I hate that...
That sucks!
Small comfort I know... but there could be an upside. Same thing happened to my Honda a few years back. All they got was the head unit. Believe it or not they cought the bastards. I had a trial date and I got crazy restitution from each of three defendants... enough to cover my deductable, a new head unit and some other random money for no reason. AND they recovered the head unit. Don't give up hope yet. Ya never know...
Good luck!

They were able to trace the head unit back to me because of the serial number that I gave them when I filed the report.

i hate those lil bastards that have ot go out and destroy other peoples property cause there too LAZY to get a job and buy stuff of there own. in 99 i bought a civic SI had the car for 2 weeks and the only night i had the car out of the garage overnight the lil bastards stole the wheels of the car 3 feet away from my front door. that kind of behavior just sucks, and i can only hope that some day some one will do to them what they have done to others, that or they would be cought and spend a little time with BUBBA in jail

I used to live with my brother, whose a cop, in Columbus, OH and one Sun. night I hear him yelling to me to get up stairs now. The next thing I know were standing at the door looking at 6 guys around my car, one with feet dangling out of the drivers window and the 2 of us with big shinny guns, wearin slippers! We, actually him first since he's the cop, go running out yellin and they scatter like roaches, except the one in the car, who happens to have a stun gun - weapons charge, screw driver - criminal tools, and some drugs on him - possession.
We drag him back to the house so scarred he pissed himself and my brother tells me hold the gun to his head and if he moves, shot him! My guns not loaded and didn't even work. Call 911 and find out an hour later the all the other idiots ran back to their get-a-way car, which is this guys and they drive it back to his house, were 3 cop cars are waiting. Needless to say, I got money too and a little more for my suffering.
We later found that this guy was notorious for car thefts and selling to pawn shops in the city and to this day, my brother makes it a point to let him know he's still around

What pissed me off is the cop didn't show up do testify so the guy only faced 2 counts instead of 2 counts per head unit (I was the only person to testify).

the best protection for your car = desert eagle .50 - just get a chrome one, you won't need to fire any shots (I'd run faster than I ever had in my life if I saw one of these monsters):

Setup a video cam with NV and perimeter sensors setup. Trip wire a few feet from the car at point of entry with claymores along the path. Make sure it faces out so the TL doesn't get any of the BB.

Sorry to hear that blk_tl. They broke into my TL on my front lawn right in front of my window. They popped my hood and stole my Optima battery so I did not hear the alarm go off. They could not figure out how to open the trunk so they pried it open and F'd it up pretty bad. The cops took fingerprints but got nothing.

I like the idea about having motion detector that triggers a camera and an alarm to wake you up. Or those car alarms that page you. That's almost a necessity now days... How sad.

It's very sad to see these kinds of posts. This is why I *always* keep my car garaged. And for those of you that don't have one, you guys should really try putting your car indoors. It's ridiculous to hear about these stories..what is our society coming too? Good thing nothing was stolen blk_tl. Hope they catch those SOB's
