    Default Less than subtle method to steal GPS units.

    So far this has happened to 62 cars in the Netherlands. The thief cuts a hole in the door and cuts the alarm system wires and opens the door to steal expensive built in GPS units.

    Looks like they worked out exactly where to put a hole on the door to cut the alarm wires.

    What a frigging mess.

    Just to add insult, going by the messages below the article it looks like they can recode the GPS units to work out side the body they were in. Ha Ha better get a aftermarket alarm system.
