That is what I was thinking. They didnt take the headlights/taillights, but they took the rear seats? Bit odd really.

couldn't agree more with the full comp insurance too! better left with money than nothing plus if you crash and write off your car its better than nothing and worth the bit extra a month!

Well Full comp insurance is just common sense if you plan to modify or even drive FFS

also consider parking your car where it wont just slide easily up onto the back of a towie.

Remember thieves or friends of thieves DO browse forums too.

doesnt it become abit suss though when these thieves sell these parts in volume? its pretty obvious that the market for these parts are EM1 and/or civic owners... sooo they'd have to sell them back to EM1 and/or civic owners and/or community right? if ya catch my drift.... and/or powerslide....

hmm... nah we can't drive FF cars, although we can oversteer em. but it can be a bit suspicious if your selling a large amount of EM1 or civic parts on forums or just on ebay it self. but having Full insurance is just common sense if your gonna drive, just incase something pops up and u get a small bump.

A lot of people don't get full coverage because the insurance companies know its a high risk car, so they rape you with charging a shietload.

Another reason why they don't get full coverage, here males insurance doesn't go down til you turn 25, that is if you have a clean record or it won't go down that much.

Was this car in Sydney? Heard of a couple guys down there stealing Honda types for parts, most parts showing up on forums.

Good tips, insurance is dear here as well for the VTi-R (Si) the coupe was over $1200 a yr for the longest time with other things included covered, being under 25 doesnt help me ethier, lol

My mate back in Ohio removes his damn aftermarket ECU when he goes inside his home at night along with his Quick-Release steering wheel. He's ultra paranoid atm after losing his old EK, it was in his garage at the time
