Default really bummed out about this.....

I have not said anything about this yet because I am so frustrated, but here it goes, I am always so careful to lock my doors, roll up my windows. but I must have left the window open a small crack 2 nights ago and Someone attempted to break in and steal my car stereo. They did not get it though but broke it in the process. My only joy is in the fact that they did not mess up my half leather and piano black finished bezel. I just can't believe this crap. My pioneer premier I had in less than 6 months and this happens. anyways if anyone is selling any kind of single din head units please let me know what you have. Thanks

really sorry that happened. some people out there are really going to regret the way they lived their lives when their time comes. might want to invest in an aftermarket alarm, the stock one is ok...but there are better out there.

I used to live in the city and had my garage broke into several times. The cops did nothing. They were to busy working to get the seat belt desperados.
I moved to the country & dont lock my garage or do i need to take the keys out of the cars. Most people know that the people living in the country own guns & will use them.

Too bad that people won't leave your stuff alone. When I was a kid in the 50's we didn't lock doors, left the keys in the car and no one bothered anything!
