Also, it doesn't look like you had window tent either...NEVER put subs, systems, or anything else expensive in these cars without window tent. Go as dark as you can go! Yes, it may be illegal, but 9 times out of 10, a cop could care less about window tent. To many other things to worry about, like these idiots!
Good luck man, and sorry for your loss!

Something else I noticed was that little pieces of that tempered glass were all the way in the front of the car on the dash! It looks like they hit the window from the driver's side, because glass was all over the passenger seat and the passenger side of the dash, but very little was on the driver's seat that I had to brush out before driving it home. I'm just going to let it sit as-is until I have to take it somewhere for an estimate or to get the repair done and I'll have them deal with the tiny pieces of glass everywhere.

they will NEVER get all the glass
trust me i've seen it all too many times. You'll end up having to pull all the seats and center counsil and all the back panels to get it all. A good strong shop vac is your friend too. I've never had a car broke into but i've foiled a couple of attempts.

Man that sucks hard. I feel for you. I had the same thing happen to my 89 camaro while parked at a church. And all that they stole were my $20 ghetto Walmart speakers that I had. Hope you're lucky enough to find out who did it!

The low lifes who break into vehicles don't seem to have any idea what stuff is worth.
A few years ago my wifes Aerostar was broken into for the stereo. It was a cheap Kenwood slidein. To get it they broke the window, tore the dash apart and then left the chassis that was held into the dash with a cable tie.
The pros took my 97 Tahoe after I had it for 16 months. No glass on the ground, no evidence it was ever there, just gone. Cops found it 10 months later on a dealer lot and my remote still worked the locks.
Hope you are back up and rockin' quickly. Protect your stuff but if some moron wants it it'll be gone, just depends how much they destroy getting what they want.

I just keep thinking about how loud that must have been. Especially in a parking garage. Those back windows aren't exactly easy to break with their concave shape unless you have a bat or something.
I'm always worried about my car around campus at night. Luckily I can walk most everywhere.

next time bump it all day long and sit back with a sniper rifle and then shoot them in the knees. after that kidnap them. then proceed to do nice things to them like cut off their eye lids, pour hot sauce in their eyes, pull their fingernails back and rip them off with pliers, smash their fingers with a hammer, **** on their eyes before and after the hot sauce. rip their teeth out with some pliers....etc...etc.....if you cant tell i hate people that steal.
