u were lucky there wasn't any damage.
When my car was broken into last summer, they busted my window.
I would recommend you to wire up your alarm to your factory horn too. B/c what theives normally try and do is pop your hood and cut the siren.

The teg is very easy to get into if you slide a screwdriver between the glass and rubber just above the lock switch- then loop a coat hanger around the switch. Mine was broken into this way, they only scratched the tint.

That should be enough juice to make its way through leather gloves... yow!
Hmmmmmmmmm.... if it doesn't exist, it should...

In addition to what has been said before, I would try to set up some kind of surveillance on your car for the time being. Does the area where the theives tried to get in have any security cameras that can be reviewed to look for the car's tag?

Well, what I would do would be to pull out a relitively high-powered rifle (in my case, probably an M44, using World War Two surplus 7.62x54mmR steel core AP, it is rare but availible) and start shooting at their car's engine block. They won't get far then, and no one is hurt. I am a military rifle collector, so it is a bad idea to break into anything I own

Just do what my friend did, he left a baseball bat by his door and if he would hear his alarm go off he would grab the bat and run out. Hey, he did it only one time but those fools never came back.

Wait, let me get the facts straight.... you have sisters?
patrickgsr94: That would be a cool idea, let us know when you get it done.
