Both our cars were broken into. In my car, the thieves took my amp, crossover, sub, and the PATS key I had under the dash for the remote starter, but they never touched the faceless HU. In my brother's truck the only thing that was stolen was his HU with the face still on.
Sounds to me like your brother came out better on the break-in than you did! Almost reason to leave the face on. Seems you REALLY got lucky they didn't take the entire car, what w/ a key left in it. Then again, people that are breaking into cars aren't big on logic. Mine was broken into for the digital camera I had left in it overnight (hidden). Thief left all my CD's (nearly 50) and didn't touch my Clarion HU (w/ the face still on, cost nearly $500) Go figure.

Yes, but that's only because he has a small-cab truck and the only piece of updated equipment was the HU. If he actually had something else worth stealing in there I'm sure it would've have been.

I've thought about that, too. The PATS sender unit for the remote start was positioned up under the dash and they had to cut it out by its wires; they had to have been looking for something there. I'm thinking there was one of two scenarios why the car wasn't stolen: one, they thought it was something else completely different, or two, they couldn't get it open on the scene (a somewhat busy park near the lakefront in broad daylight where cops like to take their breaks) so they thought they might come back and try and find my car again. I had the PATS redone as soon as I could get the car into the dealership, and I took my chances on them getting in through the locks since I had nothing more for them to steal.
