Bad luck or is Orlando really this bad..
Was running late and decided to park at terminal top parking at Orlando International Airport.. Upon return, to my dismay, I discovered my S was vandalized yet again.. Making this a 3rd time, in less than a year, that shes been broken into.. 1st time, at home seats stolen, 2nd time Ale House nothing taken thanks to seat locks. This time alarm with proximity sensors,locks spot welded on the seats, parked in front of elevator and high traffic area along with day time on my side.. Even with it all.. Slashed top, nothing else stolen.. 
to Orlando.. At least I still have her.. Time for a blue top I guess..

the good news is you still have your seats. is the LED for the alarm easy to see? I am about to add LED's to my doors so you can see them no matter where you look at my car.
just a thought for the future and should be very expensive

All I can tell you is my kid has lived in orlando for years (UCF grad). He lives in a nice part too (windymere). But he can't stand it anymore. Says it's not a safe place to have a family.
He's moving to Denver.

Someone needs to make a static cling sign that says "This car is equipped with seat locks" so we can stick it on the drivers window when we park.
+1 on wondering how visible your LED is for your alarm though... Mine is in the upper left corner of the windshield and if it's dark the whole dash is lit up. My car has yet to be messed with.

Sorry to hear. That really sucks. I use to live by the airport and it's not a great area whatsoever crime wise. I luckily, never had my S broken into but my first floor condo was. Not sure which is better, especially since I was a single gal at the time.
with the highly visiable LED though. My hubby wouldn't let the installer drill into my car for mine so my LED is on the driver's side between the dash and window and you can really see that blue light. I noticed from across a parking lot and street while eating at a bistro!
