so the cops just left and they dusted for prints...they got some really good ones of the hatch itself and apparently the thieves used a swiss army knife to cut my wires...how do I know you ask....they broke it cutting through my 4ga power and ground and left the broken handle piece in the truck...some really good fingerprints were retrieved from that as well. they also got good prints off the distrobution block caps that they broke trying to free the wires. here are a few pics for tonight.....it was dark and my batteries were dying I will get more tomorrow after the progressive claims person comes out.

I had it out a few days ago to move some personal stuff and forgot to bolt it back down.

the subs were crewed in with torx screws and the amprack was bolted to the box with torx screws.

depending on what the insurance company says I may be jumping on that US Amps +SS deal sooner than I expected. but I will be jumping on an alarm with six million piezos hidden on the inside before i do anything else.

That sucks Mike.

Wonder if it was someone who knew you. Progressive isn't that great. You should have an alarm before a system. I'm guessing the truck was just unlocked?

good luck getting your stuff back mike...and getting those goons busted.

we had an installed jacked recently here...audiobahn too! but they tore our install up getting the flame subs and rack amp out...sucks for the kid. good news is they have located everything (subs are thrashed) and are prosecuting the thieves....

hope yours gets resolved as quickly bro!

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:

I think them leaving the knife they used to cut the wires in the back will lead to a swift aprehension.

insurance comes tomorrow and I found my original receipt from the purchase so hopefully everything works out.

Torx safety heads ( have the little button)

Make that Robertson head (Canada only deal)... I'll send some to anyone that wants some, and the screwdriver too. Good luck finding a screwdriver in the US to remove them :lol:

Ya, square. As far as I know, very very rarely used any where in the world besides Canada, where it is the most popular screw head :)

you can get them here in the screwdriver kits with lots of replaceable tips

i've heard they're the best for furniture building so that'd make sense with the lumber industry up there

I've got a bunch, they are actually more popular here than Torx. Mostly in the construction trade though as they are mostly put on deck screws and such. I have at least 5 of everyone of the bits. When I laid down subfloor they are what I used. ;) Of course, I am almost in Canada.
