In the past someone tried to stole my civic and the next day my father found the drivers door damaged. I think someone tried to open the door with an iron bar. Now I am afraid about my wheels so soon I will buy a set of locking wheel nuts. I think Honda offers them.

Haven't had a problem with my S. My Civic though was broken into twice and stolen once though. My brothers accord was been broken into 3 times. Once I get my Civic put back together I'm going to try to catch a theif. Movie theatres are the best place to catch them (of course it's also the best place for them to steal cars).

theives suck, they will probably be back, since they took half the bolts off they will try to finish the job. get one of those drivway chimes that will tell you when they comeback and have your gun ready

They were probably after you HID's. I know a lot of the folks with the 3.2 TL's have a problem with theives stealing their HID's.

if they were after the HID's, well.. it takes a bit of effort to get them out. especially in the '02 and up models where an extra bracket holds them in.

as for this issue, you've had a lot done to your car, are you *SURE* that someone didn't do something recently which just might not have been tighted down correctly and maybe one of the bolts was just hanging on by a thread? cause I seriously doubt this is theivery.
