dude, you should have not assumed you had an alarm. Most people get an aftermarket alarm on their cars. Keyless entry is not an alarm.

I gotta admit, I assumed too at first (that beep gets ya, especially with the price), but when I thought about it, what good is having an alarm if you don't know what it sounds like??? ......... thats when I found out

I thought I posted the follow up but I guess it slipped my mind...

DTM fixed the botched job that NoVA Autobody couldn't finish and then did a nice job with a Viper install. The real Recaros are a small step up from the licenced faux Evo Recaros, with adjustable lumbar support, ventilation and nicer leather.

Thanks to Nick at DTM, they fit me in to their busy schedule and got the job done quickly.

That was about a Month ago I guess, now I'm a happy camper.

Sounds to me like it was some other douchebag in town with an Evo that just wanted leather seats.. I'd be on the look out for evos with no sunroof and leather seats.

My friend had his evo broken into after just two weeks of owning it and all they stole was an ipod, a radar detector and I think a couple of CDs.. Some people are just ****ty. If someone broke into my car I would pay good money to find them and give them a good beatdown just to make myself feel better. It probably wouldn't make them change but it would be very therapeutic for me.

I'm not sure why you're mad over something you could have figured out in the first place.
