Celica Forums General Discussion General Car broken into last night

Mother F*cker!!!!!! My car was broken into last night!!! took my radio, amp, sub, over 500 cds. What pisses me off is the fact that they didnt even check to c if the F*UCKIN door was open (it was) and pried the handle and busted the window

Dude that sux...but if you know you have all that junk in there to begin with...why leave it unlocked in the first place. But yeah that has to suck.

At least you can prove to the insurance that the car was broken into...

Sorry dude - that sux

good point

the policy probably didn't cover all the electronics and CDs though. sorry to hear that bro.

rofl at your profile

SUSPENSION: Works fine
ROLLERS: too much work
EXTERIOR: needs to be washed
INTERIOR: needs a vacuum

shitty, your insurance company is going to f*^& you unless you have a pretty high theft deductable. i only had 1000$ with a 500$ deduct. over 4000$ of my shit was stolen. . good luck.

i got f*cked over as well...

ppl need to get a fin job

It quite funny though, but if someone broke into my car my car insurence will cover everything attached to the car ie. radio and stuff... but everything loose in the car ie. sunglasses, CD's and stuff the car insurance won't cover, but my house insurance will... (same insurance company - go figure)

Why in the hell wouldn't you lock ur doors? or why dont' you have an alarm?????????? i know as soon as i put all my stuff in my car i had an alarm..

Thats ur own fault in my opinion

I thought the alarm wasn't activated until the doors are locked? ...Stock alarm.

Damn bro that sucks ... i park my car in the garage everynight

Thats why i said...LOCK THE DOORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

shit, that sucks!
your celica is so nice!

PLEASE tell me What difference would it have made?... They broke the window and the handle was pried off so I dont see where having the doors UNlocked made a difference

Don't you have an alarm? the alarm would of went off and you would of heard it rihgt?

You have a point about the physical breaking in but then again he has a point on not having a alarm which would of gone off when they even just touched the handle..$99 alarm coulda saved ya man.. but yeah Im sorry to hear that bro..

Even the factory VIP alarm has a sensor in the glass, so whenever someone taps on it or breaks it, it goes off. The factory alarm also goes off if there is a forced entry (prying the doors, etc.).

Did the cops dust for prints and file a report?

that sux big time bro but yeah how come you didnt lock your doors(or turn your alarm on)considering you have a "show" car and you have all those expensive equipment in them. where da hell did you go to feel confident that your car is going to be ok unlocked???

Dude I feel so bad for you.. sorry to hear that bro. You had all of that and no alarm??

I had a dream that someone stole my car. I wanted to kick some ass

or you could have spent <$5 for a flashing LED light to fool theives you have an alarm

But yah either way that sux...good luck though

sorry to hear dude...
ur car is a theift magnent.

That sucks dude...Hope the police find the culprit!

Some of you are saying that it's fault he didn't lock his doors or didn't install an alarm. The one's who's at fault is the motherf*cker who broke his window, screwed up his door handle, and stole all his stuff.

me too i hada dream my car got sold and bought an integra , but last night i had a dream i got an STI so its all good

First thing I did when i got my celica is..I went to Best But got a $200 Black Widow alarm. Works like a charm. Really w/lots mods you should of known better.

And who carries 500 cds ? R you serious? I have like 8 and i was thinking that was too many, lol.

Well... 'Least they didn't hotwire it and take off with your car, eh?

damn that sux bro!!

To be honest if your gonna go through the trouble to steal half the shit in the car why not just take it Yea my car didnt come w/ a factory alarm but I have an app. w/ BB 2maro to have one installed while there doing the est. for all the electronics that need to be replaced. State Farm has been VERY helpful, everything but the CD's (most of which were burned) and my NEW golf clubs (last year) is being replaced. The door is what is F'd up the most, they tried to pry the plastic around the handle, breaking the mech. it wont open from outside. the glass and the tint were trashed and all the glass scratched the hell outa the door and grafs. , and the kicker, the top of the door was pried too(where the glass meets weather striping) and the roof is damaged too. I went to toyota to get the est. done on the door and roof and it came out to 3k, half is in the roof, this includes the the 250 for the new grafix too, from the vinyl place.

man, that's not right... sorry bro. If it was me in your situation I'd find some way to magically find the culprits and beat the mess outta them, twice

yea but it looks like ur gonna get some major $$$, just make sure you tell the insurance it was stock stereo...

damn bro tha suxs.

Sorry to hear man. How come you ain't hear your alarm when all this was going on? Shit, if someone was breaking into my car and my alarm went off and I could them in the act, they would be some fucked up muthafuckas. I hate people like that. You work hard for your shit and then in the middle of the night assholes try to cop what you got. Wish you woulda caught them in the act...still hoping you can find out who did it. Payback is a bitch.

that sucks ..!! The biggest fear anyone who modifies is ..theft or vandalism. Seems to me that your policy should be able to help with everything except the cd's like you said. The value of the electronic equip should be covered up to $1000.oo Read your insurance contract carefully because most companies do cover automatically upto $1000 worth of stereo equipment. Mine does and i am an insurance agent myself. Looks like they took a lot of time to break in and took time to take everything out. I think the alarm would have a big difference if you had one. IMO...
Also most companies will cover anything attached to vehicle.(installed) ..but you may need to show some receipts.

sorry to hear it. I hate when shit like this happens man. Hope everything turns out OK.

dayum... thats sucks... your car grabs attn though, you should definately watch it.

dude !! that sucks but Why wouldn't you lock ur doors?

Why would I tell the it was stock I let em know I had the Kenwood 911, JL w7 and a PPI amp. suplied the proof and they are in the process of shipping out the goods as I speak

This is exactly why I keep only burned CDR's of mp3's in my car, in black cases, and slide them under the passenger's seat when they aren't being used. I have a stock alarm, and found that it probably wasn't going to be that much of a deterrent for a determined thief, so I installed a cheap Varad LED scanner ($20). It has a string of red pulsing LED's and is very visible and intimidating looking. I mounted it on the left side of the dash along the a-pillar. I think it would definitely make someone think twice about busting into my car.

Co(V)(V)union

Yeah and once they find him.. Burn his ass for being jacking your stuff..

Me too!!! the other night I dreamed that some guy distracted me by talking to me while a buddy of his jacked my stuff outta my car. And the crazy part is that I didnt notice that everything (my dash included ) was gone til later. Crazy dream

If I were a theif, I wouldnt break into a car like yours. I would think that modded car or a show car would have a crazy ass alarm system or would be watched carefully. just my opinion. but, sorry to hear about your car. My brothers car has been broken into, and my friend's GTS got his window smashed in front of my house for no reason. They didnt even take anything Things like that just suck ass.

Yeah people need to find better things to do

sucks dude..now you need a crazy alarm system

im sorry for you dude , there is realy nothing you can do is other then buy a sercurity cam.
i wish you the best in buying new stuff , this time make it a better system and get alarm / all the works

sorry to hear that. some people need to get a real job.
