I'll keep my eyes open. If it's anything like when my Milano Red ('98) coupe was stolen a few years back, it'll get dumped with parts off of it.

Mine only had the easiest things removed, granted I didn't have much done.

Can't park these things outside around here. Mine is under lock and key when parked and if I bring it out it's rarely out of my sight (I've even had people watch it for me before).

Sucks, but that seems to be part of the game.

Try posting in the regional section. Just in case anyone sees anything. Parts might show up on CL later. Hope you have at least something unique to some of the (mark, serial numbers, etc.).

Good luck on a good recovery and decent insurance claim if needed. I hope they only took it out for a joy ride.

Just noticed about your uncle's jacket. That blows. Hope it's ignored!

And no security on it?
Edit;
Just saw the club on the floor. Did you have it on? Any alarm system?

Sorry bro, I will keep an eye open over in ID/WY for any parts.

I've had my car probed twice in the last week, both times the alarm warned them away, I fear I may not be so lucky eventually.

it was found down the street from my house in a new housing development. the houses in the development are still under construction. my car was sitting on cynderblox in the garage of one of the houses. they didnt take much but the stuff they did take was more then enough to **** me off. here is a list of all the stuff thats gone. if you guys see any of it floating around on craigslist. or see it, call the police or just message me.

-mega razin voltage stabilizer
-my positive battery terminal multi port for 0 gauge amp and alternator wire
-msd nology hot wire spark plug wires
-oem honda civic floor mats (brand new, got as gift from parents)
-rubber floor mats from costco
-pioneer cd player
-my uncles vintage leather motorcycle langlitz jacket
-tsudo shift ****
-broadway rearview mirror
-kicker 1500.1zx amp. 1 channel 1500watts at 2 ohms
-2 re audio srx 12inch subwoofers
-ported box for 2 12'' subs
-bmwx 4 farad power capacitor
-16 feet of 0 gauge rockford fosgate wire
-powerbass remote bass ****
-creative zen mp3 player
-garmin nuvi gps
-kosei k1 racing rims fully restored, new tires
-creative zen mp3 player
-garmin nuvi gps

plus they messed up the ignition, cut the wire harness for my hid's, tore apart the interior to get all the sterio stuff out. im thinking they wanted to take more but they didnt have the time. i garuntee they will try to pop it again. it just sucks because they stole it at night when i was sleeping of course.

You should update your post on the top.

I hate to say it but lojack is good but you get a torn apart car, an active alarm is better, not perfect but better.

I have a nice big scanner led on my dash, it is rare for people to touch the car.

Get a train horn and rig it to the alarm... You will KNOW when they're tampering with it.

They took like everything good.

By the way get locks for the wheels, or tuner style with special keys.

sorry about that man. i'm down in Olympia and i'm on craigslist quite a bit so i'll keep an eye out.
i have a quick release steering wheel ($85 on ebay and works perfect) and i'm getting killswitches and have an alarm. killswitches are a very cheap security feature you might want to add in the near future. and they can't drive your car very well without a steering wheel and quick release steering wheels are just badass. hahah
and yes i agree with Motegicivic, get lugnuts that require a special tool to take off.
good luck on recovering your things!

If you have a garage, park it in there for sure.

And now everyone who reads this thread knows where you par this car at night.
