Went for a quick beer after graft on Friday. I was parked in a "secure" parking and was only about 40 meters away from my lux. I always sit outside so I can keep an eye on her, and the bliksems broke in and helped themselves. Laptop (Under the back seat) tablet, external hard drive you name it all mia.....
Strangely though the window was cut out and not smashed, probably why the alarm didn't go off.

Bad one,Lucky they never took the hilux.I experienced the remote lock jamming firsthand the other day.I stopped at the local Spar last week and attempted to lock my hilux,the doors would not lock. I tried several times and then cursed the few (innocent) people hanging about,started my vehicle and drove around the block and parked there.I managed to lock the hilux on the first attempt.
These buggers really want our hiluxes.

I have forced myself to get into the habit of checking the doors before I walk away as well as the canopy lock.
Need to get some snake in transit stickers
Rules are there to make you think before you break them!!! God made man before
woman so as to give him time
to think of an answer
for her first question. COMMON SENCE IS NOT A GIFT, IT IS A PUNISHMENT!! BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT HAVE IT!!!
They take a piece of spark-plug (porcelain) and throw it against the window,
it shatters but does not make a sound, then they cut the smash and grab
tinting and remove the window like that.
Thanks everybody.... and as it has been rightly stated, I still have the Lux and the only damage was the window.
Kevin, that is what I thought as well but the window was intact lying on the car chair on the back seat??? It seems to me that it was actually cut out? The damaged glass that you see on the floor was a pic taken after I dropped the glass after opening the door to see what else was missing
Is the alarm not supposed to go off when the windows get hit? (If the car is locked) Mine goes crazy in a hail storm?

I will have to go and investigate... All I know is if I close the bakkie or canopy door with too much vigor then the alarm goes off, same applies to hail.

Then it probably has one... but remember those work on line of site. So if you cannot see the sensor from the window.....

Did you look at your door frame to see if there is excess glass(from being cut?)
It was then probably done with a glass cutter and suction cups.
yup perfect rim of glass left in the rubber all the way around the window frame... until I closed the door the first time. (Hence no pic pf that)
