Some retard tried break in

Over night in Marine Parade Napier on Monday morn at 2am the alarm goes off and we find our roof with a big hole in the passenger rear side.Great start to our tour around the country.Luckily managed to get an upholsterer to do an awesome patch job before the rain set in and at this point in time on the ferry to Picton.Hope that's all the drama that we encounter :roll:

Ive seen to many cut roofs from r soles trying to steal stereos.
The trick is to remove the radio face and leave the doors unlocked.
Disconnect the door locking solenoids on the alarm so it sets but doesn't lock the doors
Set your alarm.
Thiefs will try to open the door first.
When that happens the alarm goes off.
Either way they get into your car but you wont get a cut roof.

As long as they don't smash the hardtop glass... I'm always paranoid about people breaking in or stealing my car
