my side mirror got stolen!

[amboy]

bad trip! last friday (may 13) was in manila, parked my car in front of the building where we're staying (in vito cruz), the following morning wala na the glass of my side mirrors. ang masama, since the side mirror of my rexton is not locally available pa and since wheels inc. does not have it in stock yet (na ubusan daw), they had to order the mirror from korea pa! so had to wait for a week for the insurance people to work out the details with wheels before i got it today lang! need to take a look at possibly having my side mirror acid etched... anyone has a better idea?

[KCboy]

wow grabe, pati rexton side mirrors, ninanakaw. buti rexton ko, lagi sa parking lot. nakafold ba nung iniwan mo? ako lagi fold kahit sa garahe lang.

[tebs]

yup, deterrent na rin sa mga magnanakaw ang mga folded mirrors.

i usually fold my mirror when i park on the sidewalk, then one day, hindi ko finold yung mirror, paglabas ko ulit, wala na yung sidemirror ko. that was only the first time di ko nai-fold yun ha!

pati pala rexton, pinagtitripan. di kaya sila mahirapan ibenta yun? konti lang kasi ang may rexton, unlike pajeros

ipa-etch mo na lang, mas ok yun

[KCboy]

tebs ,
gulat nga me pati rexton. akala nila siguro ibang suv kaya pinagtripan.

[amboy]

-kcboy-

exactly may sentiment bro.... pati rexton tinira... sabi ko nga either pinag tripan lang or the dude must be soooo stupid dahil hindi rin naman niya mabebenta yong glass... baka nga ask pa sa kanya anong klase car the rexton hehe!

-tebs-

yup... my side mirror was folded when i parked it... pero nanakawan pa rin

need to goto big berts to have my glass etched. available pa ba this service from them?

[Marc MD]

better super glue the glass na.. kasi ganun ginawa ko.. ever since ndi na ko nawalan ng side mirror.. kahit makuha nila yun mababasag yun and masusugatan pa sila sa tigas..

[amboy]

-marc MD-

i guess i could do that... kaya lang for the rexton i don't think it's advisable to do that yet. kasi on my left side mirror, nahirapan yata tanggalin the glass kaya the motor assembly got damage. siguro na puwersa masyado when he tried removing the mirror. so nangyari i had to replace the whole assembly and not the mirror lang. ok lang sana if locally available na the glass or the assembly for the rexton but since bago pa lang siya sa market sa wheels pa lang available all the spare parts. so on all non rexton cars i guess putting super glue would be a good deterrent but for the rexton hindi pa siguro now.

[Marc MD]

hmmm anyway kung ganun din pala and masisira din ang assembly mo better put super glue na din para mas mahirapan sila alisin and if ever maalis nila basag din at hindi na mapapakinabangan.. and maybe since hindi nila naalis ang part ng mirror mo baka maiwan na buo pa yun assembly.. mas tipid ka.. and malay mo nasugatan pa yun kumuha.. o kaya may makakita kasi siguradong hirap na hirap yun wahehe.. usually kasi ang mga magnanakaw ng side mirrors mabilis gumalaw.. akala mo dinaanan lang yun kotse yun pala nakuha na ang side mirror.. they wouldnt waste time.. kung pagdaan nila hindi nila nakuha diretso lakad lang kasi baka mahuli sila.. well it depends on the location of the target car..

hmmmm you have a point there bro!

I Park mo yung sasakyan mo at same spot, tas pa bantayan mo sa goons mo sa malayo yung rexton mo hehe , para i trap mo yung magnanakaw pag tangakahin nakawin ulit yung side mirror mo, di ka maka bawi sa kanya sa singil sa pag nakaw sa mirror mo, pero makakabawi ka naman sa kanya sa gulpi. hehee

[KCboy]

minsan nga, naiisip ko yun, kung wala kang magawa, ipara mo at upo ka sa isang tabi, tingnan mo n bantayan mo car mo, at pag may bumalak, gulpihin mo agad. parang naghahanap ng away lang. kakaasar talaga mga ganyang tao.

[ILuvDetailing]

Kahit gulpihin mo yan... di madadala yan, remember once a theif always a theif. Labas pasok sa kulungan mga yan, kung baga sanay na sa ganyang buhay. Yung mga center cap ng Revo, Adventure mainit din, benta nila 50 pesos per

[kimpOy]

yup nadali rin ako sa harap pa mismo ng house ng mga in-laws ko sa apalit...should've known better...

[amboy]

tsk tsk tsk.... parang halos lahat ng puedeng ma tanggal sa auto ninanakaw na... grabe!

dito sa amin, inabangan nung may-ari yung nagnanakaw ng side mirror ng van nya. tas isang gabi, nahuli nya. 3 tao pala. yung isa na naiwan, bugbog sarado sa kanya. hinabol pa nila yung dalawang kasamahan nya papuntang delta (dumayo pa dito sa fairview). ipinakulong niya yung nabugbog. sana di na maulit dito sa street namin

[kotiko]

Our sidemirrors (for Suzuki Jimny) got stolen 2 or 3 times already in vito cruz too.

[bad driver]

guys, nanakawan na ako dati.

sad but I had to resort to the banawe boys. in short, I had to buy a most- likely-stolen replacement. baka binili ko rin yung mirror ko.
hmmmm. dapat kaya bumili tayo ng new side mirrors or pumatol sa
walang katapusang cycle na ito?

[Marc MD]

yun na nga.. its a vicious cycle.. when the buying stops the stealing can too.. pero meron kasi ibang tao na nagttrip lang talaga.. lalo na yun mga teeners na feeling gangsta.. kinukuha lang nila just for tripping e..

[Supierreman]

to help minimize the vicious cycle pa etch nyo na lang. magdadalawang isip yung magnanakaw kung kunin nya pa yan since di nya rin mabebenta.

wag nyo iglue.. baka masira pa yung mechanism mas malaki yung gagastusin nyo pag nasira.

[zechs]

pero kung pinagtitripan lang talaga ang kotse mo, nanakawin din nila yan regardless kung etched or not..so better park your rides to a safer and guarded place.
