No, no, no, not my ride. A very minor thing, but still annoying....my chrome valve stem caps. Some 'nasty' stole 'em. I know that they don't cost much, but the fact that someone actually took 'em annoys the hell outta me. I mean, do people actually go around checking out for valve stem caps? Hmm...maybe the individual(s) were drawn to the G.

;-)

Well, what goes around, comes around....you take from someone, someone will take from you.

Man, don't give me a heart attack over some damn valve stems caps [img]/w3timages/icons/mad.gif[/img]!

j/k - I'm following Redwillow's DIY and adding a shock/impact sensor to the factory alarm this week. https://g35driver.com/forums/showfla...sed&sb=5&part=

Perhaps you should consider it as well before something else disappears.

I know, my bad, my bad...not necessarily the most "informative" subject line, right?

;-)

All the same, anything removed from our rides (without our acknowledgement) is a violation of our God-given G rights...and the individual(s) should be tortured!!

Okay, maybe that's a bit extreme...especially over chrome valve stem caps.

having your valve caps stolen is very, very common. that's why i never bought them. actually to have them and not have them stolen is rare unless you have the theft-proof caps which are pretty cool. i would think they can be a pain though since they require a special "key".

 

Now look for some kids in your neighborhood that like to ride their bikes around. Stop them and do a search on their tires to see if they have your caps! If not and they have Dice valve caps, take them and put them on your car. SCORE!

- Don't argue with idiots. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.=P-

 

yea i think mine got stolen too. what punks =\

Grubbs sells the theft-proof caps. You do require a special key. It's not that bad of a pain in the neck. I check my tire pressure once a month. I keep it in a secure location in the car at all times.

True, true...there are some kids who roll around on their bikes. Hmmm, interesting suggestion, RaySur350GT.

call me lazy, but having to look for the key whenever i want to pump some air in the tires wouldn't work for me---i lose everything. now that i'm thinking about it, i better check to see where i put the key for the wheel-locks. i don't recall where i put them!!! : )

on the same token, i went out and bought one of them portable power supplies with jumper cables and air pump. so, i don't have to go to the local gas station to pump up my tires when the air is low. the best thing ever!!!! and if there's a blackout, i have a back-up power source--not much power but enough for powering lights or a small tv!!! : )

 

Arent they only like a couple bucks at walmart anyway???

 

PS I lov emy shock sensor but the thing is NOT going to go off is someone gently unscrews the valve stem covers. If you park outside like I do then your sensitivity will have to allow for the cat and the occasional thunderclap w/o going off so no way my setup would stop this - that why I go with the rubber ones. The sensor should really only go of if a metal object vibrates the chassis of the car - like crowbars and screwdrivers banging on the body when the light thieves come steal your zenons for thier cavalier or sentra.
