Somebody broke into my Yaris last night

[tomato]

On the plus side:

1) they didn't take anything valuable (because I don't leave anything valuable in there, learned my lesson the hard way - my CRX was broken into *MANY* times *SIGH*).

2) they left one little container open I didn't even know existed (clearly not a theft-proof container but always good to have an extra container )

3) they popped the lock (as opposed to breaking the window) and did so without managing the lock (I think).

On the negative side:

- It always feels really nasty whenever you discover someone has broken into your property and went through your stuff

- they left scratches on the plastic, dash, etc. (probably weren't planning on being too careful) not sure I can get that off and possibly on the side of the door, didn't have time to take a good look this morning before going to work.


I'm making a new thread for this because nobody can tell you too many times: DO NOT LEAVE IPODS, LAPTOPS, ELECTRONICS of any kinds, not even your GPS units in the car. They look for stuff like that because it sells real well.

My neighbor wasn't so lucky and they really damaged her car trying to open it up and got her bike and other stuff. They cut right through the lock (she had a major super-duper lock on it )

BE careful people.
