Look for the adds that look like Used parts. (not that yours look used) BUT, like the visors. they are held on with 3M tape right?

 

yeahh..a lot of ____ was pretty easy to take..which makes me mad...I feel so dumb not doing more to prevent this all.

 

I would ask the police if you could Browse the traffic cams in the area for your car. who knows they might let you. that way it's not "wasting" their time....

 

dude... as bad as it sucks... and eventhough our's havent been stolen yet.... our scions are like our babies too.. honestly you have to look at it this way... I dont care what alarm you put on, anti-theft device, etc... bottom line is this... if someone wants a specific car to steal.... there's not much you can do about it....it will happen. So the best you can do on anything you put into it aftermarket is say somewhere underneath the part out of sight...give it a unique mark and log it with a photo and keep it somewhere safe.

 

best I can think of is lo-jack installed in a place that very uncommon to have it installed on a vehicle. Maybe then it'd catch the little bastards red-handed.

 

Don't say that. that's bad juju. lol. mine can't get stolen. it's a transformer.

 

I know it's sad, but post some pics.. I want to get really angry at them... pics would help. also, post some pics of the parts that got stolen(if you have some*pre-theft*)

 

A-snell ..... bro... I didnt jinx us.... re-read my post... I did this on purpose... I said "and eventhough our's havent been stolen yet" <-----note the "yet"... that wards off Murphy :D

 

^ ummmm ok... lol... nothing wards off Murphy.. lol it's fun to PICK what part of a post you want to comment on. even though it might be out of context.

 

well we can try lol

 

yup... hey Dexter.. were you planning on making the trip up to WA for the Show for a Cause?

 

Where did they steal the car and where was it recovered from?

 

damn man that sux alot.....and the bad part about it is the police wont do a damn thing

 

Sorry to hear Dexter, I saw your car at the show last weekend too. I hope you have some luck in finding your parts. Thiefs suck, I hope you catch them and drag them behind your xB.

 

Maybe there's a way to wire the car, That way if anyone touches it while it's activated they'd get a good ZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP! You know.. just enough to stun them. Not kill em..

 

damn that sucks - i'll keep my eyes out for you & i know how it feels & it is a hard thing to deal with/work with 'cause our cars are our babies.. let's hope we find the bastards

 

Sorry to hear about your ride....gave me flashbacks to when I was 19 & my geo Storm got stolen. Don't laugh, they were OK cars 14 years ago.
Noob question and I don't mean to thread-jack.....but I thought the chip in the key was supposed to prevent the car from being started w/o it. I should do more homework, but what's the use and or is it only on certain models?
Car thieves are modern horse thieves...bring back the old western resolution.

 

^^the first gen xb did not come with that.

 

been lookin dexter....
spread the word around work too. so peeps in the st.helens and longview area are keeping an eye out for some of those things!
and btw dexter i have some steelies if you need to borrow them. lemme know they have snow tires on em tho..

 

well yes there is.......Ford makes a nice little capacitor that you can magnet rith to the frame and then take the wire and attach it with a magnet soldered on and it works great.......not that I would know such things........

Problem is if you are not careful you get shocked attaching it to the car........and well that really hurts.........also not that I would know......lol
