I hear you brother, we do the best we can to protect our investments but it seems those other people work harder to take it from us.

You live once so enjoy it and dont worry about what others may do, think or care.

Damn man sorry to hear. And thinking that I live 3 minutes away from that publix and I've gone inside publix leaving my S outside top down and all. I agree with mike and the tow trucks. Like two months ago, I saw through my window a tow truck that stopped right in front of my house for like 5 mins. F*ckers didn't know I garage my sh*t.

Even more messed up is when random as shady motherFr's come to me at hangouts and tell me exactly the area where I work and the places I stop by. Secure your car and buy your self a nice piece to complement your car alarm. haha!

Slash top, release E-brake, put car in neutral . Problem solved if they want the car its theirs. Did the car have an alarm? I'm sorry to hear this; this is why I have a 2-way pager with smart start so I get a notification if my car has been touched. I have a quick release too so that stops a thief from trying as well. Protect your investment my alram is by far my best mod.

This works great though if they are in a public place. MORE SO if you do it and THEN remove the steering wheel like you have.

Wow that took a long time. It's not like those parts won't show up sooner or later in this very small community . I'll keep my eyes open forever for stolen parts just in hopes to catch the f@#kers.
