As most of you know my car was broken into last week and some MF'er tried to steal it. Well, I replaced the steering column, repaired the chopped up wiring, and had a new stereo installed along with an alarm system. My wife talked me into calling our insurance company and filing a claim. I argued with her and said we would only probably get about $100.00 dollars after our $500.00 deductable. I took digital pics of the damage the morning it happened. Here is what AAA gave me for the damage.
Stereo $ 465.81
Column $ 652.64
Wiring repair $ 120.00
Paint and body work $ 812.77
Deductable $-500.00
Total $ 1551.22
I spent $450.00 for a new stereo and alarm. I had a friend that gave me a column:) . I installed a new passenger side door lock Napa $13.00. So I made about $1000.00 because some Dumba** tried to steal my car. The best part about the whole thing? My wife doesn't know about the money from the insurance:D . Maybe I'll take her out to a nice dinner.
Doug :D
