Stolen Chrome Shorty Antenna, Tempe AZ :(
 
I was at Dave & Busters in Tempe a few nights ago. When I got there I parked towards the back (kinda close to a Silver tC) so no drunk ppl would hit my car with their doors. A few minutes after I pulled in a FM tC pulled up and parked a couple spaces away from me. They sat in their car Staring at my tC for a few mins, i just figured at the time that they were admiring since they were bone stock except for a crappy exhaust. Well I locked my car and went inside. I came out a bit later and both tC's and my antenna were gone. I am just assuming it was one of the tC's but not for sure.
So if anyone see's a silver or flint mica tC with a chrome shorty antenna, let me know so I can kick their ___! Most likely they're on the east side since that's where it happened. Thanks :) It just ____es me off that someone would touch my stuff.

Sorry to hear this... What a shame for such an inexpensive part.

bbcrud 10-02-2008 09:46 PM

Petty... lots of that around though.

thats messed up, I got my stem caps stolen once before.

Ugh. Sorry to hear that. That happened to me too. A week after I first got my tc some loser stole my oem antenna (and a tire valve cap just to ____ me off). The weird thing is, like you I also parked next to an older year tc...sigh. I dunno why people do that :(

Next time loctite it (the red one). That's what I did after I got my s2k one.

Well I did have a little bit of locktite on it but just not a whole lot cuz sometimes I need to take it off. Well definitly going to be looking out for it and using a buttload of locktite next time.

bbcrud 10-03-2008 05:06 PM

Too bad you can't loctite the thief to your antenna so they're sitting there when you come back to your car.

One of you creative people need to get on this! :P

i would probably get a conductive antenna made and then hook it up to a car battery so the person gets shocked when they try to steal it.

bbcrud 10-03-2008 06:14 PM

Like those pens that shock you.

jsg93085 10-03-2008 06:49 PM

yep, but a little more violent

iocca 10-03-2008 06:49 PM

yes, but instead of a AAA it would be a car battery lol

jurassic1 10-03-2008 08:04 PM

yeah, like a tesla coil :D zzZZZttt!

bbcrud 10-04-2008 12:33 AM

:shock:

You said "Tesla coil"! Getting a little technical over there.

:rofl:

illusive-tc- 10-07-2008 12:30 AM

Use the blue locktite and alot of it... its the removable type just takes some extra ump.

usmc7236Ret 10-07-2008 07:15 PM

I hate thieves...
I am on the east side I will keep a look out.

Beckaz_tC 10-08-2008 03:57 PM

Well I know there aren't that many tC's out there with a chrome antenna so it should hopefully be easy to spot. It was probably just a stupid ASU student being a dik. There are so many tC's in that area.

bloody_mess 10-08-2008 08:13 PM

are we still seriously talking about a CHROME shorty antenna. WOW :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: thieves sucks but come on

Beckaz_tC 10-08-2008 09:56 PM

Yes we Are seriously talking about a Chrome shorty antenna! It's the fact that someone else put their hand on MY propety and stole it. Sorry if you don't like it but I do. :blah: :loser: :ttth:

BrownDogg 10-10-2008 07:12 PM

That sucks but its such a small thing in life. We live and we get over it and move on.

Maybe it was for the better because those lil chrome things dont get radio reception worth a crapp anyways

Beckaz_tC 10-10-2008 08:56 PM

Mine did. You can tweak them to make them get perfect recpetion. Worked just as good as the stock.
Oh well, I'll just get another one. I'm definitly not feeling this big stock one I have back on.
