Last Thursday my 85 240 was broken in to. Nothing was stolen, as the interior is partially disasembled for some behind the dash repairs. There was nothing in the car but parts and some other junk. No CD player, No speakers. The A**hole was good though. He pulled the trim away from the rear triangle window, exposing only the glass. He then removed the glass and reached in to unlock the door. The car was covered with pollen but I saw no finger prints or smudges. This was done fast and efficiently. I was really suprised. I put the glass back in and bent the trim back to hold it, but I know this is going to increase interior noise, as the seal will never be as good. Additionally the trim is a little beat up from getting assulted then bent back. I'll post pictures when I get them developed.

I'm not really sure how to protect a brick from this kind of assult. I do know that my new 91 is getting an alarm, though the same trick would not work on it.
