that sucks man, hopefully your insurace will cover it. Il tell ya what to do tho. Start asking around and see if you can come up with any info on who may of snagged it and then get yourself a large blunt object to carry with you in route to a confrontation.

Yea, that sucks. I would highly suggest a alarm if your gonna invest $850 in a deck though. Seein as how a good alarm is less than that deck alone.

Your insurance company will cover it as long as you have full covereage. They will charge you for the deductabli from the damage estimate.
They have to cover any steroe or speaker that is installed into a factory location. So the head unit and front, middle, and rear speakers would be covered. TEchinically if you mounted the amp in the spare tire well they would have to cover that as well seeing as it is in the factory location.
They will only covers things related to the car. If personal possessions get stolen out of the car they dont cover them, you have to file that under your home owners or renters policy if you one.

They should cover it if you told them before hand that you had it. Thats what i did when i put my system in(indash touch screen 7.5" kenwoodkvt915 flip out/and mysubsampboxcap door speakers speaker amp) i have about 4kin audio equip insured by my policy basicly you tell them the dollar amount that you have invested in your audio equipment and tell them you want to have it insured for theft.

I called the cops and filed a report and they lifted some good prints off the window so I guess we'll see what happens. Im hoping that I can get my insurance company to pay for it. Does anyone know if the deductable applys to stolen items or is that just for damage?

that sucks sorry to hear.
Same thing happened to me, came out one morning headin to work and my trunk was open a little. Thought that was very strange, got to the car opened the trunk looked
in and I'll be damned if my cd player was gone. I was pissed.
neways didnt file a police report, it was a halfway cheap stereo. But I still didn't figure out how they got in my car!

I might have just gotten very lucky. I actually got a letter from my insurance company 4 days ago that I never really looked over since my insurance was just renewed. This is what one of the paragraphs says.
Your new personal auto policy has been broadened coverages and benefits to include:
An aditional equiptment coverage provision under part D - Coverage for damage to your auto has been added so that we will pay for loss to additional equiptment that is permanentley installed, but not originally installed by the manufacturer or factory, limited to $1,000, at no aditional cost to you. In addition to the base coverage of $1,000 provided, you have the option to purchase additional equiptment coverage in excess of the limit at an aditional premium.
Lol what are the chances of my policy changing 2 days before my car gets violated so that I am now covered. We called them today and they told us to call back tommorrow and they will look up our policy and let us know what exactly will happen. Im hoping for the best, ill let everyone know when I find out.

Some people might be against you having **** on your computer too but if someone breaks into your house and steals your computer that still sucks! Maybe you don't like custom wheels but that still doesn't make it right when your neighbors car is on blocks in the morning.

Are you the adjuster working his claim? If not, you can't say that. I have written many checks for stolen stereos for the company I adjust for & I didn't "rob" one single car...
