Default The %$#@s tried to steal it again!!!

It happened again, 30 feet from my office windows. I ran out a chased them off. Threw an axe at them but overestimated the ^%$# Honda's acceleration. Cops were called. They put a hole in the door but did not get in. Did it while parked in the street right next to my car. No way they could have gotten it, even if they got in. Many measures were taken. This is happening because the theives know Audi's are easy, and the blame goes to AOA. I did everything I could to protect it, short of moving away from the Newark area. By the way, shop told me they get em even with alarm systems. He had one in his yard. At least duct tape matches silver. I am not in a hurry to repair the hole.

A camera would have accomplished more than the axe, keep one on your desk

Default I think it's time to start putting squibs into our ballasts

Without the correct switch flipped, when they pull the headlight BANG! no more ballast, bulb, housing, or hand.
