Default Adding insult to injury....

I just found out that while I was in the hospital, some !@#$ stole my head unit! They didnt ddamage the car much or take anything else thankfully. I'm going to get a viper alarm installed. anyway, what does everyone think of the Alpine 9813? I was going to get the 7897 but the face would interfere with other controls.

this is the unit:

I hate when I screw up something of mine out of being dumb.. But I have not time for others even touching my stuff. I guess thats why I only drive the car where I know how the area is before I park. Like at work I have a pivate spot and at home I park in the garage and I have a 140 pound 9 year old Bitch rottweiler down a long private drive..And I still get up at night to make sure Berlin is not ripping apart some fool..So far I have gotten a brand new Trek mountain bike from someone that thought they could cruz up but I guess they got off and my dog scared them so badd they left a 500$ bike....I almost backed over it going to work.. :lolg:

But the down side is UPS.Fex-ex,USPS, hates me.. :cry

But thats the price if I want to protect my stuff..A viper alarm will work but better yet get a dog and a good baseball bat..Drag them in the house and call it self defense..That way you can bust some ribs... :thumbs:

Did they break into the Vette or the Taco? Either way that sux man.
