Truck just got broken into, broad daylight
Mother F'ers. broad daylight in the middle of a parking lot in plano, tx. stole my damn ipod and phone, not to mention the damage to the damn handle. they broke in on the passenger side front. looks like they broke the handle surround to gain access to the lock. any ideas on how to stop this? i know this has happened to a bunch of us. i know the obvious, an alarm, but that still wont prevent em from braking in again and stealing more sh$t. they just have to be quicker. any ideas?

Hat to say, but that is the EASIEST way to break into GM trucks and then to make matters worse, the FUKIN alarm won't go off if it's broken into that way.
The best way, sorry to say, is Chrome door Buckets. They tried to do the same to mine, but the chrome door buckets don't break like the plastic OEM ones
It does make a mess of the paint with their SCREWDRIVER

That reminded me of another Seinfeld episode.
Nothing you can do but let the insurance and police take care of it and PUT IT BEHIND YOU. Sorry to hear though.

File a report with the PD. The statistics are the only thing that is going to improve the crime rate. Cops will probably rag on you for leaving an IPod in plain site, but you can still force them to record it. We must have had better parents, and we definately have better lives. F'em all! I left my Dodge unlocked once in my driveway overnight and some a$$ wipe stole my dirty coveralls? What the F are they going to do with a pair of dirty coveralls beside inconveinence me. We need to be able to protect our property with guns, that would discourage some people. WHAT'S MINE IS MINE! Good Topic!

Get his dumb @ss back on the phone & have the cell phone provider track his smart @ss...just a possibility.

Re: Truck just got broken into, broad daylight
i reported it immediately with the police. but an insurance claim is frickin useless. they said that my car insurance will only cover the vehicle and things attached to it. so they will cover the damage from the stupid f#cks breaking in. They said my homeowners insurance will cover anything stolen. so, damage is probably $250-500, my deductible is $500. Things stolen: my ipod and razor phone, value: about $500 total, me homeowners deductible is $1000. So it's pointless to even file on insurance.....what a c&cksuckin scam insurance is!

Re: Truck just got broken into, broad daylight
he stopped answering the phone so i had it shut off so his useless ass wont dial mexico. on the lighter side, phone insurance is sending me a new phone overnight. WHY CANT THESE F%CKING PEOPLE GET A F%CKING JOB AND EARN THEIR OWN SH&T! I WISH I WOULD HAVE WALKED OUT WITH THE DAMN CRIME IN PROGRESS. I WOULD HAVE FINALLY BEEN ABLE TO USE MY .40 CAL!

Re: Truck just got broken into, broad daylight
http://www.jimmijammer.com/JJ%20Installation.htm
Just finished development for the H2 for both front & back doors. Just released! I do not work for them, it was people from this site that made it happen. Also, Jimmijammer is putting up a link to this site for the support he got from here.
This will make your stock alarm actually useful because they can no longer get in through the door buckets! They will still try, but not get in. Adding an alarm with LED lights is also a good deterent to keep them from trying, but like you said they will still do it quicker.
I have both the jimmijammer plates and an alarm.
FYI... the billet buckets only allow them more leverage to pry on and does not stop them from getting in through the door buckets.

I think that you have to yell "IT'S COMING RIGHT FOR US!! " first to ensure that the threat is obvious.

Re: Truck just got broken into, broad daylight
They run about $40 for front and about 35 for the rear. Check that site for pricing. They may not show the rear doors on there yet, but they have them!
