    sorry to bring up an old thead, but my GQ was broken to and stripped out the night before a big camping trip, the took all my recovery gear, my brand new steel cage roof rack, parts of the dash, my sound system, dual battery setup, 6 spotties and camp fridge. needless to say i was gutted.

    as to the general consensus in the thread, if theives want it, they will take it. the stuff had only been in my car for 24hours, i believe it was someone in the area who knew the car and waited till i had it loaded up with goodies. basics people, give them as little reason to break in as possible, dont leave anythign on display, if you have bolted on stuff, try using odd sized heads nut heads and even go as far as loktite-ing them on if you dont plan on taking the item off anytime soon. my new patrol lives permanantly in my garage except for going out driving of course lol.

    we invest too much money and mainly time in somthing we are all obviously passionate about to let some asshole just come along and ruin all your hard work, and i hope none of you have to go through the same thing i did.
    I got red dust in my veins.
