Bits n Bobs
« on: 20 November 2006, 22:49 »
Im sure some little thieving scum bag has been taking bits off my car.  One morning I went to wash it and there are 3 little rubber things on the back window, 1 day one was missing.  I thought nothing off it although my dad said someones took that it wouldnt just come out which would seem true but anyway its only a tiny piece probs worth about 20p.  The next thing I noticed half of my frony spoiler missing, now this time i thought Id probably somehow ripped it off on a speed bump or pot hole and not noticed.  So Ive gto a new one yet to be fitted.  However, tonight I come out of Tesco and the roof looks different, no this has definately been taken, the aerial from my room, all thats there now is a rusty screw so someone hs definately screw off the alloy aerial.  I know its not much but its starting to piss me off. 

So in order to get them replaced, any ideas where i can  get these bits from.  Firstly I need the aerial, now there is just a screw on top, no idea on the size of it or its its standard but any ideas where I can get a screw on alloy aerial.  Also, the little rubber bits that go in the back window, any ideas where to get them from.  ANd also I do really need some new windowm wipers both front and back, any ideas if they do these anywhere other than standard ??  Cheers.

Hmm, well the cheap option would be to find a decent local scrap yard.

Then, having just read another thread - keep a dog in your car to keep away the skankies.

My dad woks at the locla scrappy so Ill get him to kep a look out, I did get a rubber bit for the window off him but its not quite the same shape looks a bit old and tatty !!  Still keeps the rain out !!  Normally get wipers from there too but there aint been many golfs in recently.  Im thinking of getting a camera on the front of the house and if I do catch someone doing this the baseball bat will be out with the knuckle duster and they will be chased until caught and punished !!
