Well today in the broad daylight in a very busy area of the city I work in my jeep was broken into. I really can't say broken into because the front doors & top was off. My console was ripped off ( it's gone ) and my bestop under seat safe was pryed open. Also one of my windshield lights were busted off.

That really sucks. Are we to assume the windshield lights were plastic housings? Can you show pics of the drawer to see if there is some way we can all avoid the same scenario.

Hopefully your insurance will help cover the loss.

This smacks of kids wanting to vandalize something and the doors off gave them courage to be little pricks. Makes me angry and its not even my jeep.

Sorry to hear this. People some times Good to know for reference the bestop under seat storage can be easily broken into. I have Tuffy's security full center console. Suppose to be pry proof, very stout and more space/taller arm rest over the oe console.

I will post pics of the bestop. I wonder how much an oem console is because I would rather have the full tuffy. Also my gorilla wheel key is missing (all my lugs are locking)

Damn I am in springfield. That sucks! I can't believe nobody called the cops. Did they get anything that made doing all the damage worth it? And or do you have a enemy? For just the damages caused?
