. . .and found !!!

I gave my daughter my 1992 SE-R classic in January. Two weeks ago, it was
parked on the residential Tempe, AZ street where she teaches elementary
school. She came out and it was GONE, in broad daylight.

Two hours later the police called, car had been found a few blocks away,
with the radio (sans faceplate) ripped out. At least they left the antenna
adapter ($20) and didn't mess up the ignition switch/wires. They took my
Chilton's repair manual.

A month ago the window was broken and the previous radio was ripped out.
That's why I told her to take off the faceplate and leave it unlocked with
the CLUB. This time, she had forgotton the club.

Any suggestions? Leave a spare radio on the front seat with a post-it "Take
Me"? Ideas? What value is a radio without the faceplate? Were they pros,
stealing it with a funny key? Time for a hidden fuel pump power switch?

Concerned in Utah,
Richard
