Smile Seats stolen....AGAIN!

So those punks hit my car again last night. Second time in a month. First time got them replaced (along with the top, wiring, steering wheel, seatbelts, etc) and these lasted a whole 10 days before getting the exact same treatment.

I'm dying to get rid of this f'ing car so I don't have to deal with a seemingly ongoing insurance claim/rental car nightmare... so frustrating.

Next car I get will definitely be a hardtop w/ some sort of kick-ass alarm.

lease runs out in 4 months. Not worth it. It'll be in the shop for a month, so really only 90 more days with this damn thing.

that's really crappy. they probably waited until you got the car back to hit it agian.

an alarm would've been the first thing to get on my list... of course if my dog hears a twig snap outside I know about it. guess he's kinda like my alarm system.

So you did nothing to prevent it from happening again?

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

seat locks and a shotgun


or, you're right, just sell the car. it'll probably be a lot less grief for you in the long run.

Maybe they just don't like you. Any enemies?

I suggest superglue and razor's. Superglue a f-n nightmare of straight razor's underneath the seats. Just think, they've done this before so their prolly pretty good at it, and prolly wont even use lights. I've seen a guy with a Jeep do this to his head unit and he said there was blood all over his interior the next time they came around. Pretty fun, and you'll feel good about it. You could even call the cops and have them scope out the local ER's for cut wounds to hands. And when you sell the car just use plier's to remove all of them.
