Hi Robert, Why be alarmed?In a time where many people are complaining about the cost of parts from vendors an alternative means of buying parts can only be a good thing.And why do you think these cars were stolen?Perhaps they were in an accident like James'car or the person's car is worth more in peices than intact. I have absolutely no problem with people parting out cars.It keeps the good ones on the road an ensures the cars will be around longer. But I too worry about the day when someone may try to steal my car.I don't think it will be someone who needs a left front fender but some kid who wants a bit of fun hooning around. I personally think an engine immoboliser is the way to go with security.The car can't be started unless the crooks have the key.The immoboliser shuts done fuel,ignition and something else I forgot.I couldn't get my car insured unless I had one.
