Default RADIO STOLEN!!! PLEASE HELP

Hey folks,
Some punk asses stole my stereo in the car last night. Not sure who it was, but I will find them, I have connections to people that can "find" stereos in my area. I left my doors unlocked in front of the house last night, so thank goodness, they didn't break anything. They rummaged through the car, but stole nothing but my Pioneer DEH-4600MP and Delphi Roady2 XM radio. They also stole a one-time use credit card that had no balance on it. XM has been notified and flagged the radio as stolen. The credit card was flagged as well, but the bank said, they would do no tracking on their part. They rummaged through my things, but didn't even take my watch, CD's, cassette adapter that came with it, but they did take the remote. If anyone has leads on a factory cassette deck, please send me some info. I can be reached at 614-805-1494. Also, if someone would like to show me how to paint a car, that would be great, since my clear coat is lifting on my driver's side rear fender.

Later folks,
Justin

It's kind of hard to just "show" someone how to paint a car. If youre serious about it, go to barnes and noble and start reading up on it.

As for you stereo, that is unfortunate. Afterall though, it is simply a stereo. **** happens.

Well, that's a good point, I meant , the technique, I will read up on it though. I ask the cops to do fingerprinting, but they said "This isn't CSI", oh well, never hurts to ask. Now, where's that mustard gas canister I was going to use for part of my alarm system.....

Sorry to hear it man. Yeah, cops won't fingerprint much of anything anymore, unless it's a murder, then they just screw up the evidence anyway. My parents house was broken into when I was younger, they came in through an opened window. The cops were there within just a few hours of it happening. They didn't fingerprint anything even though there were two guns stolen! My father lifted two sets of full fingerprints and a shoe print with graphite lock lube powder and clear packing tape. Sprinkled it on and dusted it ever so lightly with a makeup brush. We even had a few suspects, one of them that we named actually did do it out of the three we named.

Hi Justin: We may just be able to do something on a stereo. I have a 92 968 with CR-1, AM-FM cassette with CD changer controls. PM me if interested.

Hi Justin: I just got word on my tires. They do have the sizes I need, but it might be 2005 before they are in stock! So, I guess that eliminates me driving 125 miles one way on a spare tire. You're welcome to come here and "kick the tires" on the stereo here.

"Grove ****ty" LMAO

I've never had that happen to me before, but I feel you man. You just want to track them down and run them through a meat grinder 20 times till they're puree.... All in all, that is nothing compared to what COULD have happened. Just try to look at the best side of it. The car wasn't stolen or damaged, just a sound system... IMO the car makes the best sound you can listen to...

When mine was broken into they couldnt lift any prints due to the rain. You were lucky it was left open, replacing the door window was a 3 hour PITA for me.

Sucks.. BTDT.
