Hey it's on the right side if you're sitting IN the car; who wants to show off anyhow? What matters is that anyone sitting in the back seat will know exactly where you get your parts frommatthew1 wrote: Being the helpful types, they generously took time to apply an iPD sticker I had in the glovebox. Nice and straight, great location. Only one problem: it's on the wrong side of the glass.

Thanks for all the comments; I am happy the way things turned out. I do have their identities -- unless the backpacks in the car were stolen -- and I'll be following up with the police on this.
I have to buy new keys/locks tomorrow, and the front end is a little loose I've discovered, so I'll be looking into that, but overall "the cup is half full."

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.
Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Re: the last 2 things - anything come out of this? Were they able to find the guys and was anything wrong with your car?matthew1 wrote:^
