yea happened to me twice. I just take my antenna off if I know i'm gonna be in a place for awhile. People steal them to use it as a mod on there celica's and integra's. Well thats what i've seen our antenna being used for.

Yeah what can you do about beside taking it with you. I always take it out and just leave it in my trunk.

Some people use lock-tite. Or you can just take it off at locations you cannot see your car.

I had mine stolen a couple of months ago. Whenever I am going to be in an area where young guys hang out, I take it off. Places like malls, college areas, clubs, and Wal Mart.

Mine was stolen as well. I bought a replacement, but only put it on for long trips. The rest of the time, it stays in the trunk and I listen to CDs.

The ones that steal our antennas the most are Celica owners. I recently got my antenna stolen. So now, everytime I see a Celica with an S2K antenna, I steal it back! I figure that they stole them from some S2k owner so now I'm getting my revenge! I now have 15 extra antennas for my car. Now I could care less if it got stolen again!
