Default thieves...they got me.

Walked out to my car this afternoon to take my mom to see our insurance agent because my sisters car had been broken into on the 1st and they stole her stereo system...so i get to my car ..and what do you know! my **** got broken into. they tried to steal the whole car but they didnt, they broke the ignition and all. they took my vafc along with my stereo and intake. they werent able to get the whole car because i had my clutch club on. ..so pretty much saved me..so if you dont got one..id suggest getting one.But i think they will probably try and come back because they seen what was under the hood, that scares me. now im out 380 bucks and probably more because insurance said they will not cover the afc because its not stock..or in a "factory location"...even though i have full coverage. . and to the thieves. **** YOU TOO.

damn that sucks. well the bright side is your car is still there. time for more security if you are affraid they will come back? kill switches, hood locks or hood latch relocation, some cheap but very affective deterants.

sorry to hear that man. Get a deadbolt for your car doors and they won't be able to enter your car next time. There's a how to thread somewhere on here. THIEVES SUCK!

i got all my problems solved i think, i was throwing codes because they had took the vafc and since its not there anymore some of the wires werent connected...so i reconnected them all and its running fine.

I thought about a better alarm...but if they really want it they are gonna get it..so i guess what i got is as good as its gonna get....besides a few kill switches here and there...

Good luck and best wishes on the situation man. I know how you feel,
same thing happened to me except I waited one day too late to
buy a steering wheel lock. Not only my stereo, but the car also.

By the way guys, kill switches are your friends.

i'm a firm believer that clutch locks are your best theft protection...kill switches are a close second followed by a good alarm

What do you mean "clutch lock?" Are you refering to Autolock?
