Ever have things stolen from your car?

I was wondering how many of u guys have experienced something that was stolen from your car. What did they steal and did you ever find the guy(s) who did it.

Here's my story. It was raining the whole night and my friend is getting ready for work. And he goes to out side to his car. Calls me on the cell phone. And askes me to give him a ride. I asked him what happen to his car and he says my rims are missing. I didn't beleive him. went over to his house and see his car balanced on two cinder blocks. Couldn't beleive it. His rims were brand new cost 800.00. Never did find out who did it.

stolen not all at once. 3 alpine h/u's  1 alpine 3522s amp, 2 RF punch 150 hd's 1 RF punch 30.   year 1981 jim fosgate punch 100 w/dash mount control,  orion 15" sub, 4 fultron 10" subs, 2 blues 12" subs,  pair of fulron 6x9,s  pair of fultron titanium tweeters, pair of polk components, fultron parametric EQ, RF punch 12" subs, im sure their is more im not remembering. but what really upset me out of all of this was they ripped the dash out of my car and it was in 3 peices   have not had anything stolen for about five years now.   since i wrote this ill wake up to a striped car.   and no peice was ever recovered. or the guys that done it.

Yikes!

My first bi-amped system;
Still loudest and proudest:

Pioneer MP7400 <-- took the face. Not the CD player itself, even tho they ripped off the entire dash, just the the face...

JL Audio e6450, JL Audio 500/1... Yea... a good kw of JL amps ... who'd value that...

A pair of Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1's, custom MDF sealed enclosure..
'nuff said.

Every power wire and RCA straight cut at the amp.

I got into my car right... kinda distracted. I used to date this super hot redhead and she made me super hot angry everyday right... so I get into my car ready to bass and drive around a bit and I kinda look at my dash and think "heh why is my dash missing?" and as the sinking feeling leaked on out to my body I reached down to pop my trunk and it was already popped......

Bad day, seriously.

Oh yea.. woot State Farm insurance. $1100 worth of parts somehow translated to a $2000 insurance claim. The butter? I never even told them about the stereo.. no special coverage, no 'modified car coverage' or whatever... They were straight crediting me with an install valued at $500 that I did myself?!

God bless America.

this happened about 2summers ago.   really on thing stolen from me was a 11'' dvd player. couple "friends"
 came over earlier in the day to see what i was doing later that night.     told them that i was going out with this chick. well the next day went looking for my dvd player at my house.       no where in sight. called a couple people. found out that 4 "friends" of mine came over stole that and went into my garage and stole my tippman FA paintball gun also.     two of them used the money to go to georgia the day after i found out.  

Do you guys believe in Kama? Well 2 out of the 4 are dead now. One died in a tragic car accident back in Feb. The other overdosed on pills and alchy about 3 1/2 months ago.

I had a much of car audio equipment in my old house such as sub's n there box's, and amps and such and i loaded them into the moving truck myself, then went to work while they brought it to the new house and my mom and brother were there, but obviously not looking out for my stuff. When i got home from work there was no sub, box, or amp to be found. They gave us the run around telling me to look here and there and "it is most likely under all the box's".....2 weeks later i finally searched everywhere and there was nothing to be found so i went to the police station and they did nothing.

my girl at the time stole all my equipment from where i had it stored in my house.two pioneer head units with the dolphins when they where new like 450 buck a piece, 4 10' sony explods brand new in the box, two fosgate 100 dsm,2 power 800a2's  ,1 12" ma audio comp, 2 15" kicker comp, and all my wire. ex-girl now and lucky not dead girl now. oh well live and learn.

the stuff i have had jack from my car happened once and it was only a junk eq. i credit this to my anti-theft system  the razoor blades i install where they would have to grab to get the stuff out. the downfall is the blood but i havn't lost nothing of real value yet. the one thing i was told by a cop once that this was illegal and that the crook could sue me!! serously, he said that and another cop i asked at a different time. never got to look up a law on it but could you imagin getting sued by a thef that just tried robbing your stereo. i surely would be in prisson for murder then. thats just how my state s$#*#!!!

That's true that you could be sued.  A warehouse owner was sued and lost when he had a shot gun rigged to the door that was constantly broken into and the teen thief was killed by it.  His parents sued wrongful death and won.

About a month ago it happened. They took my radar detector, but it was useless to them. I cut the cord and had it hardwired. They also took my leatherman tool (that was the thing that pissed me off the most). They also took a set of jumper cables. The replacement window cost more than the stuff they took.

The thing that gets me is that they left my sub, amp, checkbook clearly laying on the seat, multi-meter, computer hardware for a GPS system for the farm, a second set of jumper cables, and CDs. My box and amp are not even tied down in any way, and I know that they saw them.

I have a 2 way compustar RS installed (no alarm). Even with no alarm installed, the remote still alerts to a door being opened without unlocking from the remote. I was within range, just sleeping too hard to hear it. Boy I wish I would have heard it and went outside to "meet" them.

I filed a police report knowing that it would do nothing but inconvenience the cop from his nap in a parking lot. The last thing I was asked was if I was willing to file charges if the guy was caught. I agreeed that was an option, but told him that he could drop the perp off at my place. He didn't like that idea.

oh and i was replacing the 318 engine and tranny in my 66 with a 440 and some kids stole the radiator. and scraped it for 8 freakin dollars.  it was a four core radiator. if they  knew what they were doing they could have sold it for a easy $50.00. but i got even. lets just say sand and motors dont go hand in hand.

I had a 1000w Legacy amp stolen out of my truck a few years ago now, can't say I really miss it. Someone walked into my garage and walked away with my old Aura Force 400Q a couple months ago I believe, I have not been able to find it since. I have been pretty lucky about breakins and such, I still need to call my insurance company and see if my audio stuff is covered, and if not how much it would cost me to cover it.

Ahhh... Memories. I have had so much stuff stolen out of my car it is rediculous. The best one was the night after a car show. I had approx $7000 retail worth of equipment stolen out of my driveway. Insult to injury, THEY LEFT MY ALARM ON MY DRIVER'S SEAT!

I've been sick lately, sorry I won't be on much.

That is pretty bad.  Why do people do things just to be @$$ holes?  Anyways...  My cousin got his system stolen recently.  I don't know the exact models, but it was something like this...  2 15 inch woofers, JUST THE TWEETERS from his components up front, the faceplate off his HU, and last but not least... the tire pressure gauge.  The robbers also decided it would be fun to key his car and cut up his leather seats.  Needless to say my cousin was pretty pissed.

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.
