    2 weeks ago someone took my wiper blades:mad:. This morning they slash the rubber that holds the rear window and break the plastic lock and get in my truck and took all the things what's inside. My Portable GPS, Peltor Sport Electronic ear Muff, Oakley Shades, Oakley Cleaning Kit, Strider Knife, Check Book, Ipod Touch and even my dental floss didn't passed,dammit...:eek: Went to a dealer to check how much the replacement of the rubber & lock... they said I need to replace the whole one piece set of the window for $878.00 + labor $408.36 + tax....What a bad day for me....:confused:

    I wish I could implement a James Bond type anti theft system, if my car got broken into it would either burn the hell out of them or shock the shit out of them.

    Sorry to here about the break in.

    If you haven't all ready, get a wood dowel and put in in the window track to secure it.

    I'd see if i couldnt get the insurance money for the dealer charge and put in an aftermarket power rear and pocket the rest. Make some lemonade.
