And the kid says that he TRIED to steal it, but it fell in the car and he didnt keep it. So, as I'm cleanin my intake manifold my mom comes out tellin me this and just starts gettin in my car on the driver side and I'm like, "why are you gettin in my car?" and she tells me about the phone call. I open the passenger side door and look straight down between the seat and the door sill. Faceplate was upside down RIGHT there... I had a friend ride in that seat for 30 minutes just YESTERDAY and she didnt see it. Now I feel completely retarded. I get a lecture from my parents about it and I called the detective and left a msg saying we found it. I'm just thankful I have it back and I can listen to music again! yay! Lesson learned I guess. btw... My bro lives in San Francisco too ;) So he knows about the locking thing.

    Whatever, he tried to steal it, just because he's an idiot and didn't succeed doesn't make it your fault. If some punk kids "stole" my faceplate, I wouldn't be searching the car for it - I'd assume the punks had it. Don't be hard on yourself - you had no way of knowing.

      Well... if you didnt know, I am only 18. I still live with "Mommy and Daddy" lol. They both gave me a lecture on how I should have looked EVERYWHERE in the car for it. I looked on the driver side all over, but didnt bother on the passenger side. I mean... its gone... I didnt take it off the radio... punk kids had it. Meh... lesson learned I guess. Cool to have music back though. ESPECIALLY since I drive about an hour to AND from school every day!

        Any chance they put it back in your car later???

        Funny, I never pull the faceplate off on my cabby, even when I park it with the top down. Never had it stolen, Of course, my car is a shit can and it is and POS Kenwood.

          Oh whatever, some day you'll be on your own and the lectures will decrease. They'll never stop though - trust me on that one.

          Dave. Maybe the pics are deceiving, but how can you POSSIBLY say your car is a POS? I'd have to say it's easily top three or four best cabs on here. Now as for the Kenwood, maybe that's why it hasn't been stolen.... :)

            Top three or four!!!!! WTF! It has to be Numero Uno!!!!!!

            Seriously, though, its 19 years old in December. Kind of like an old movie actress - she looks good . . . . . . . for her age. ;)

            you should have seen it when I bought it off eBay back in '01. It was a shitbox then.

              Your car is officially the Diane Lane of the board. Mmmm...Diane Lane.

              It's not the best because of the two calypso m50 cabs :) But aside from those two...

              I really do love your car. Tstars were so damn hot on it too.

                Naw, it fell I bet. I wasnt even around for the next few days except at home. I got school Monday - Thursday 2:15-10:15. I wake up around 11:30, leave 12:30, eat on the way, and dont get home until 11:20 at the earliest. So... I bet they just dropped it. Dumbasses lol I'm still gonna be a little immature and have one of my hick friends go peel out in one of em's yard lol

                        yep. Picked it up last Saturday for $80. :) All I need to swap over is my sender which I believe is just the 2 bolts out...and 2 bolts in. DONE. Then fill er up with some gear oil...and put her in. I might take it to school and put it on a lift to change it out though ;)

                            Oh that's a compliment - I'd do Diane over just about anyone. But she's not a Pan Anderson or Carment Electra, you know? Shes more of a...refined beauty. I'm only 24 - and she's what, in her 40's? I'd marry her. And have babies with her.

                            lol, being a hardass is doing donuts in someones yard?

                            Similar story - was out riding the "strip" at the local beach, a long standing tradition, and somehow my passenger got into it with the truck next to us - they were dumb kids in a Ranger, and to this day, I'll never forget what he yelled out amongst the banter:

                            "FUCK YOU, I'LL DO DONUTS ON YOUR HOOD!"

                            What could you possibly say to that? Nothing. There is no come back to that.

                                Pam Anderson - is any part of her body natural these days? Too fake.

                                Carmen, she is just a bit too slutty for my tastes. She is closer to my age than Diane (though I am a wee bit older than Carmen). She grew up near me in Cincinnati. I'd tell you that I knew her back in High School, but that's be a lie. I knew some people who went to school with her, but don't think I ever met her.
