Good call sending the Jacks they left to the police station. I bet those ***s baught the jacks at a local autozone ( or something ) the day befor or possibly the day of. Maybe one of the employies rembers one or two guys purchasing those exact jacks. This is actully something i would do, Go to all the local stores and show the pictures to the employies and ask if they saw anything. Im sure the police could get further though. ( Possible get to look at survalence tapes) but i would still go check my self. Dont leave it to the police to sometimes be lazy and not hit all the key shops. Good luck bro and hope you get all your cash out of it.
they used car jacks from other cars.. one of the jacks was a nissan jack

Well once I got them home,I decided I really didn't like them.Want to buy them back???Seriously,There is no more a disturbing picture than a car up on blocks like this.A dealership I worked at long ago was always a target for this.I would come to work in the morning to this at least 2 or 3 times a month.It just made me sick and I didn't even own the cars.

I don't know if wheel locks will deter someone that really wants your wheels.

I lost my key for the wheel locks on my old car. One hit with a hammer/chisel, and it cracked off.

Damn makes me wonder if I should get wheel locks also.
Did not know about the wheel lock removal kit.
I figured it may slow them down at least or figured it may not be worth it for most crooks.

But as I said, if they really want you wheels.

It will slow them down a little plus with the right alarm system it will go off.

wow, doug i'm sorry to hear and see that. Is this the complex by the mall in Manchester? I have a friend that lives there and it looks so familiar. I'm always worried about my Z there and he always tells me I'm crazy as ****! I'm sure you did but you should interview a ton a people that live in a space that could see your car. That's terrible and if it is that area...I can't believe how downhill its gone.
