Celica Forums General Discussion General I got in my car this morning and...

My cd player and my amp was gone. Someone broke into my car and stole my stereo. I hate theieves.

how do you think they got in..?? did they brake through a window..???
were the doors unlocked..??


sorry to hear about the break in dude...

You know I am not sure how they got in. Maybe a slim jim because the windows are fine. I know it was locked when I went in because I check.

damnn that sux..sorry to hear

do you have an alarm ...???

i have one on mine... good thing to cuz... i allways sleep next to my gun... if i hear that shit goin off... i'am gonna run out there... shoot 1st... ask questions latter...

i just gotta make sure i dont hit my car... heheee

^^^good idea. I just have the stock alarm but nothing went off. I am going to call my insurance and see what they can do.

Wanna know what is bullsh*t??? I have a yellow support our troops ribbon and someone stole that!!! Sorry about your car man...

That is bullsh*t that someone stole your ribbon...thats pretty low. I just called my insurance company and now I have to wait for a claims adjustor to call me and let me know whats going to happen next...still makes me mad.

I had one of those on my bike and someone stole it.

^^^terrorists are stealing them.


that is so fucking low, that people would steal other people's property.

damn that sucks bro...you didn't park your car in the garage?

nope. I don't have a garage

damn that sucks. sorry to hear.

No respect I tell ya...

gay

Well they just called me back and they are going to cover the damage, and cost to relace. I just have to pay the 100 dollar deductable.

^^good to hear. hope you get an alarm

stupid low life's have no cash of there own so they have to screw up people who earn their belongings retarded losers

didn't you just got the system put in not too long ago???

Well I had one that I put into it when I baught the car.

alarms are worthless...pop the hook cut the line...problem solved...might as well just say heres my keys go ahead...only reason i use my alarm is because of the keyless entry system

you need to look at it thru a point scale.

ametures will only steal if there is no car alarm or that "club" thing

experienced guys can get thru the club and a simple car alarm no problem

pros ... if they want it they can take it.

for the celicas i hate to say it but its really easy to break in kill the alarm rig the switch and drive off. from experience the club will slow someone down for about 2 minutes if they know how to get thru it. (bad design) the alarm if its the stock ones or anything thats simple it can be disabled quickly. i hate to say it but if someone wants it they wil take it. as bad as that may sounds its the awful truth. at least your insurance company will take care of it.

yeah man... you made out like a bandit. Only a 100$ deductable thats pimp.. BUt sorry for the loss, theives suck ass

if you mean pop the hood and cut the line in some cases that wouldnt work. my car has a sensor under the hood that will activate it

That's the way.

so you're saying a pro won't have any trouble getting through a Failsafe starter kill that prevents hot-wiring? maybe if they push the car? or load it onto a flatbed? if then, that's what pager alarms are for so you know right away the alarm has been triggered and take action to eliminate the threat.

now that i think about it... i thought that stock alarms come with a kill switch that prevents the engine from starting when the alarm goes off... or...

i' am i totally missing something here...??? no matter... i still like my gun better.

u live in macolmb, you can find the thevies in 10 minutes... lol


i love setting off my alarm, it sounds cool when other peoples alarms are going off... ill do it as i see cars drive by it at my house just to deter them... if they are theves... lol

Well for $100, you're getting brand-new stuff.

It does suck though. I had someone break into my parents car when I drove it once... thankfully, nobody has ever broken into the Celi.

Alarms with kill switches help prevent theft of the actual car... but alarms don't do much in terms of stealing stereo stuff. Pop the hood and d/c the battery... no more alarm.

Your best bet is a low deductible incase something does happen... which you have.

Next time tape some razor blades behind the stereo

lol, ive never actually set my alarm off in the 8 months ive had mine.

^^ then you might be a good candidate for the flamethrower alarm. Considering how many times I set off my alarm, I know I wouldn't.

sorry dude

Does anyone have any suggestions of good aftermarket alarms?

Also I don't have power locks. Will an alarm still work?
