Man! That sucks! Time to move outta that 'hood, Mag!
I once got both my windows busted out twice in a 2 month span. The the thing was there wasn't even anything to really take besides a few CDs. Fuckin' low-rent gangbangers! They only can make afew bucks from resellin' them too!

Mag, did you have a alarm system? Sorry to hear about your loss,,,,,,damn crooks

The hubby had a buddy have that happen to him several times. So they got to thinking and then took the little screws out of the edges of the stereo... the ones that hold the housing together. They put those stanley utility knife blades on each screw and put them back in. Very carefully reinstalled the stereo.

About a week later, sure enough, he found his window smashed out... but his stereo was still there. With a lot of blood all over the front of the car. The police said it was a fine idea and took the report to get the window replaced. He lived there another 3 yrs and never lost anything again.

Gory but it worked.

magnatique,

Sorry to hear about that, I had one idiot smash out my window to get my cd player once, Why he was an idiot was, I came home really drunk the night before and forgot to lock the car - both doors.

IT WAS OPEN! And the idiot smashed out my window, the nieghbors heard it and called his cars discription in to the police, he got busted 6 blocks away.

hehehe..

thing is, I had removeable faceplate this time... but beeing it only had been 5 days, I didn't get used to taking it off everytime...

the first time I forgot to take it off was today... and I got it stolen...

mag, i know how you feel, i got carjacked 2 months ago, brand new car.. they found it 2 days later- minus the navigation, minus the rims, minus the stereo and speakers. and they took tide and fabric softner i bought the day before... who the fuck would steal laundry detergent!?! fucked up people out there!

Moscow is much more fun in that way.

A friend of mine had his hamburger in local McDonalds for 30K$.


While he was eating some unbeleivable motherfuckers stole his Audi A8-4.2 a year ago.

The car was not new , he payed like 30K but still a bit too much for a burger eh?


Funny thing that video cameras were somehow nonoperational on that side where his car was parked...probably Big Macks dont sell that good as stolen Audis...


Four years ago my father came home pretty happy too and said that he BULLSHITTED MOTHERFUCKING THIEVES. Said they stole stereo from his car which was already broken and didnt work....Funny that he didnt mention 170$ for a broken window though...

Sometimes I hate living in a small town, but after reading this thread I feel a little better about it.

I don't even have to lock my doors!

That sucks. Someone else I know in Canada had their car busted into like 10 days ago.

I had 1 car broke into like 10 years ago. It was a Suzuki Samuri. It was like 2am in the morning.

The kid got away with nothing.

Something about an old man with a gun yelling 'Get away from that car N-word' scared him away. Think the old man was in his Alabama flag bath robe haha.

I gave that old man a few bucks. Laughed about it for years.

Lucky it was not the hood, the old guy would have been John Wayne in an old fashion shoot out over a shitty car with shitty electronics.


God, the good ol days.

I town where I'm living car burglers are not a big deal. Maybe 3 missing radios a year!

How many people have car radios in your town? 3?

CAR ALARM, my friend! LOL

Get the kind of radio then when you shut the car off, it automatically turns inside-out in the dash. (so the front is flipped and hid in the dash). I have no idea how much those are though.

Also, tinted windows will make it harder for people to pass by and "gaze" in your car and see what you got.

Better still, get one of those "James Bond" cars that locks the thief inside and gasses him to sleep. Then you'll have no trouble shooting him in the morning when you're all sleepy and bleary-eyed

Ok. Here it comes...A few boring advices and stories.


First. Rule number one (at least for us normal people in Moscow ) - KEEP YOUR WINDOWS AS MUCH TINTED AS POSSIBLE.

This basicly is a very good security stuff (not to mention how cool it looks). Unless Your car is old and cheap. Why? Because when it's old and cheap stealers may think that You tinted Your windows because may be You got something good inside and will break them but will not care or be scared at all cause the car is cheap and old.

When the car is okey tinted windows help a lot when they are 100% or 95% tinted (not less, less is a stupid FASHION or how You call it stuff). Because with such black windows as 95% people around cant only see what You got inside and who's inside , the most important is that they dont see HOW MANY people are inside and in night You got to go REALLY close to the car and spend quite some time just check if there's noone in and still You wont be sure.

And car thieves dont have that much time at all. In fact usually stealing happens very very fast.

TRUE STORY:
I once quite a long time ago (roughly two years ago) had to move to my wifes place which was located in the center of Moscow and there was no secure parking anywhere near that hood. By that time I had quite an old BMW. Man, that car really made one car stealer a neurotic person till the end of his life I beleive.

The car had an alarm (piece of shit actually) and absolutely nothing inside of value. However some local mofo made it his target for his night escapades. That was fun, because as an adult webmaster I usually work up to 4AM and the flat where I lived was on the second floor with the car right below the windows.

First night I heard the alarm I quicky ran down and found nothing. The guy was probably checking reaction (and probably found it unbeleivable when I appeared in less than 4 minutes in 4AM approximately, think those people never heard of webmasters ).

Second night I heard it again and ran down and again found nothing. Probably he thought that the night before was just an accident and normal people should sleep by 4-5AM.

Third night was calm.

Forth night I slept good but the next morning I had quite a good laugh. You see, any NORMAL BMW , or probably any other car, has two door locks, one on the right front door and another on the left drivers front door. Well not in my case. In my case someone broke the lock and torn half of it out and completely damaged it on the front left drivers door probably long time before I even saw that car and purchased it for the first time. Since that broken lock looked really really ugly and I honestly never gave a fuck about that car I never had time to repair it and instead my father found somewhere some kind of small round shaped metal piece and placed it hard there since it fitted good and because of the nature of the damage of the lock it also jammed there pretty good. My father thought it looked better that way.

Well... my night car thief probably mistaken that small piece of metal for some kind of security shit and when I came in the morning I found out that the metal piece had an accurate HOLE in it! Poor idiot spent half a night screwing the metal just to find out by morning that the fucking lock was broken and jammed anywhay and that metal piece was just my fathers great design idea (best since he "bullshitted the thieves")...


I had a good laugh when I saw that and I honestly hope the thief saw my demonic laughing...

Well, next night , the final one, I heard some SLAP sound and again my car alarm.
I ran down (because of sound pretty disturbed that time ) and saw a shape running away. I was actually kinda suprised to see anyone in a distance running because I was already used not to find anyone. I tried to pursue the fucker but I guess webmasters arent made for good running, at least me and he got away.

I went to the car and was fucking surprised because ... I found NOTHING.

In the morning I came down and what brought my attention was quite a big piece of red brick lying on earth by my car. It just didnt feet there. I was thinking already to drive away when something on the car brought my attention again. What I saw and when I understood what happened really made me laugh and MUCH.
BMW 518 rear windows have a small black line like 2 or 4 sm. wide wich like separates the window in two parts. I actually never even cared about them or took them to my attention. Since they're black and look like plastic I always thought they were actually made of plastic. Now I know they're made of good metal. Because mine had a DISTINCT red trace on it and was slightly damaged like something hit it really hard.

What actually happened is that probably being extremely pissed off by three unlucky nights of which one was full of useless screwing my night thief decided to go the TOUGH way...
What he did, is that he brought a brick, lined and targetted it onto my rear window and threw it really hard. Now I know why last time I was able to see him and he did not run away as fast as usuall before I was down. That's because he was in a DESPERATE STATE OF SHOCK when instead of breaking the window glass his brick bounced back of the old cars window and fell on earth with no visible damage to the window at all (by dark night it's close to impossible to see that black line crossing the rear window when You're short on time)....

Next day I moved to another place and local thiefs of that hood probably still have legends about THE UNTOUCHABLE CAR.

baba... that one with the flipping face was the one I had at first... the ones that stole me knew their shit... they cut everything clean ....

Sorry Mag,

That sucks. I live in LA...I don't know what it is like in Canada. Here, you definitely have to have a stereo with a removable face and then on top of that you need to take it to like East LA or East Long Beach (basically anything East LOL) where they know how to REALLY secure your shit.

As far as tinted windows...can't have 'em here. Against the law and the cops will harass you for even the slightest tint. Mine came from the factory that way and they still pull me over for it.

As for car alarms. Fuck 'em. Can't stand them. All they do is make noise and you never know if it's yours going off or neighbors or better yet, whether it was a cat that jumped on your hood or a theif breaking in LOL.

A LO-JACK is a the only way to go... oops and a system that won't let your car start without a special key...car alarms are a waste of money and you and your neighbors sanity. Besides, any experienced thief can disarm them in a few seconds.

And the most golden of all rules. If your car is worth more than your system...use the above methods BUT leave your door open. Can't even tell you how many windows (and peripheral damage) I've had to replace just so they could get to my radio. They're going to get it anyways, why have to replace a window and repair damage?

Maybe these are just LA rules. Might not apply elsewhere.

That royally sucks.

I had my stereo, amps, and kicker speakers stole out of my van. The hot lead started a fire in the back of the van.

They did not get the second set of speakers probably because of the smoke. I lost a good $2000.00 in equipment.

Two weeks later I purchased another CD player stereo. It was also stolen. I have a cheap tape deck in the van now and a hell of the story to tell. :-)
