Presumably to get this amount of detail you had cctv, might be worth putting this online in the hope the scumbags are recognised. Hope it's found soon.

How do you know all that detail of how they stole it?
Either easier, or the rewards are worth studying for?
Not good to hear another one stolen, hope you get it back.
hi ,
No extra security fitted as , it was stolen from Sheffield , a mini cooper also went on the same road the following night, the police say that the road was being targeted
Didn't have the Cctv running and usually block the car in with my wife's car.
They left the broken ignition switch , welding rod , indicator socket/bulb and all the plastic fixing studs for the panel at the back of the wheel arch all on the drive. Police had experience of this being done before
No sign yet , but suspect that I will not see it again

The ecu isn't near the wheel arch it's fixed to the bulkhead with two 10mm nuts behind the engine impossible to reach from wheel arch

If they were in the car, why did they need to mess around in wheel arch? They could have accessed the ECU wherever it's situated.

Leaks an prone to bits dropping off
Please don't include too much detail of how it was stolen. I know all the info is out there but we don't want to draw them a map

I disagree.. you can trust that the villains already know all the tricks, they discuss their methods on the internet too. It's us Mugs that have no idea how to protect ourselves because we don't. We need to share this sort of detail to learn how to protect ourselves.

Can get SIM / TEXT operated trackers from around £25
Have just bought a good brand one for about £50 for use on a bit of kit we are developing, I will trial it and if I thinks its good enough I will post details.
Theory is I can set it up for movement alerts and just text it to get its exact position.
Should show up address on google maps etc.
Standby use on its own battery is 80 hrs but can be connected to cars supply.
Maybe a good standby bit of kit, but wont give details until I know its worth trying.
Back to post I hope you get a result, am sickened by these arrogant thieving b****s

+1 agreed
the people who are nicking these already know how to do it and share it with other thieves/partners , if we don't know how they are being nicked how do we protect them? im curious as to what all this is with the indicators
