Re: [DML] Vandalized D

["dmcorlando2003" <SundeQuick@xxxxxxx>]

In my case the fuse box was left exposed (see previous post) so that 
is how they saw it.  But I think that it is very possible that my car 
or another D was seen at a car show because they knew where the horns 
were and how easythey are to disconnect.  However, if the Vandals 
really wanted to screw up a D and ruin hard to get pieces they 
wouldn't have targeted the seats as those are easy to replacement but 
a showie display of their distruction...as we all know there are 
other more difficult pieces to get...carpets, center console 
(original vinyl) etc.  So I don't think they were experienced D 
people but instead just a bunch of punk kids who perceive the D as an 
expensive exotic they could trash...  

But I do agree that people should not give out too much information 
on their cars as to important items because it could effect other D 
owners inthe future.  I know it is very tempting to show people 
everything about the car at a show where people all all over your car 
telling you how cool it is, but it just isn't that smart in the long 
run.

someone asked a lot of questions and was sure to make note of where 
all the important stuff was.  I have heard of this happening before - 
crooks wandering thru car shows pretending to be interested in the 
car but they are actually casing it out....
