Subject:      Beyond Midnight Auto parts WAS Rear wheel locks for 15" Alloys

I am told that in parts of Hawaii if a vehicle is left unattended for long
it will be  stripped. I am also told by Wayne Schuster who used to live in
Mexico that it is common for parts to disappear so he intends to carry extra
lug bolts and so on.


It depends where you camp or live and even then it seems to happen. I live
in S. California 20 miles N. of San Diego. One day (years ago) my roommate
went out to find his car up on Jacks ( a popular older Toyota I think),
wheels gone, bumper ends gone and  two of the rear windows also taken. The
police said it was the "Beyond midnight free auto store" scenario.
Apparently it is not that unusual anywhere.
