jokes on them tbh as its a piece of shit tom tom thats about 7year old. get about 5quid for it!
not like they could see i had a sat nav in there anyways. plus if they didnt get something they would prob of damaged my car in spite!

do them alarms allow for remote central locking? as i might aswel do that too.

they probably watched you put it in the glovebox? not saying about losing the satnav the annoying bit is the window, leave my glovebox open to show nothing is in it

99% of aftermarket alarms do remote central locking hence saying about it when you wanted RCL.

Gemini IMO for the features per price.

nah it had been in there for weeks. just an opportunist. i live near a ginnel onto a field so its easy to do the last car there which was mine.

window only cost 45 to replace so not too bad, getting them back out in the morning again as its not fit flush enough so the rubber on the rear point doesnt sit against the body work in the slightest, i was at work when it was fitted so didnt get to check them do it!

It's bad that this is what it has come to, leaving your glove box open to let thieves know there's nothing in there.

i think it was just a kid. they did a corsa c further down the road but smashed the front passenger window and stole a mobile phone.
id rather have an alarm for piece of mind, it might not stop it from having its window fucked, but it will hopefully stop something from being stolen

I have toad alarm. First thing I bought before spending thousands on the car. Don't understand why people wait until broken into. They were always due to "get one

Alarms don't do fuck all. Theyre a deterrent
