Weird F30 dashboard theft!
I got these pics from a colleague who had their 3 series company car broken in to and pretty much their entire dashboard stolen!
Apparently there's been a spate of these in the area. :

Oh it's Xmas again ..
You know this used to happen to TOM TOM and DVD players from Halfords but this is some next level theft . worse part is they cut the main wire harness so going to need full wire loom they haven't scratched anything so must have had time in their hands |

Unfortunately those parts can't be tracked. Repair this main quadlock connector is a real pain and not cheap if need to be done properly.

This is a common crime in Italy - recently a work colleague living in Milan had his BMW F31 completely stripped of dashboard components.
I remember in the mid 80s sitting in a restaurant in Cagliari and we all were surprised to see people walking in with their car radios in hand. Seemed a very strange thing to do. Within a couple of years we were all doing it in UK as the stealing of ICE had arrived in UK. |

Many here bang on about the benefits of Autowatch Ghost. This is the kind of thing that happens when thieves can’t just take the car. |

Audi A3 and A4 were a favorite for this type of theft, they would steal the satnav head units loads for sale on ebay most stolen.
