Today, my car was broken into while i was eating lunch with my girlfriend in what we thought to be a relatively safe neighborhood. The thief couldnt steal the radio so he smashed my Pioneer AVIC-U310BT touchscreen. he also bent all the OEM mounting brackets and broke the dash trim kit brackets as well as the waterfall mounting brackets. oh well, bad luck...

any people near the Sacramento, California area (Elk Grove area specifically) should be more careful...just a warning for anyone in that area, and a reminder that some people just love to ruin other's happiness.

 

Sorry to hear about that!

It's terrible what some people have to do in order to make them selves feel good.

 

That sucks to hear, where at in Elk Grove was this?

 

it was on East Stockton Blvd at the AppleBees and Marie Callenders off the 99 Freeway.

 

How did they break in?

 

Sorry to hear that bro! Hopefully it's not too much to repair.

 

don't worry about it. the guy it's gonna buy some drugs and he doesn't know he is buying his death. nobody it's gonna cry his death and here in SL will continue to support our fellow members.
That's the bright side of the story. don't worry be happy :D

 

the fastest way to break into a car would be to break the window and open the door.

and yeah, with twisted and warped brackets from that noobs failed attempt to steal, i now have to go to the dealer to buy new ones... sh_t happens lol, im not that bummed anymore. gf said something about a replacement for xmas

 

dude sorry to hear that, I installed that unit for you too!

let me know if u need help installing the new deck.

 

Sorry to hear that, it's always unfortunate when people try to take what other people have earned through hard work.

 

That does suck man and I know that area, you think it would be fairly safe since it doesn't seem that bad, but I guess you never know.

 

FTR, did you have any type of alarm system? I'm sure if I was in a restaurant and I heard my alarm blaring I'd check in a heartbeat.

 

that sucks man; sorry to hear

 

unfortunately i dont have an alarm system. never thought it would be necessary, still dont to be honest. but yeah, im over it now. its an unfortunate setback but i think ill just put the stock radio back on permanently...at least until my next car hahah

 

Honestly contact your insurance company thats what they're there for. They will cut you a check more than likely to replace what was damaged and as long as you have full coverage they will replace the headunit too.
