    Angry "He stold my Balloons"

    Hello all you Alpine Fanns I have a problem with my Alpine....
    It has no front
    Someone Broke into my Car Last night and fleeced through my toons and took my Bluetooth Hands free for my Moble it was a Nokia Recharge able but the jokes on who ever took it because it worked for a Week and then just Quit and would not Recharge..... Anyway I have a CDA-9825 that My brother bought and installed himself Yah good for him (He has no time for Electronics) so that is big for him to install something
    What I want to know is can I get a Replacement front or is it Just Junk now?
    If so Ill take a Sledge hammer to it and then throw it out...
    that @$#@#%$ that took it will not get a Working Radio out of this.

    usually the front faceplates have as little circuitry as possible right? So it would be not too hard to assume that most Alpines that have a basic face-plate with similar specs (either changing or non-changing backlight colour, that sort of thing) would have the same communications part, so it would work?

    I dunno, but could be a nifty experiment to get one to work.

    HOly crap that is expensive!

    $70 for a faceplate?! Nowonder why they stole it... You may even buy back your own faceplate!

    $55 here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ALPINE-CDA-9805-...QQcmdZViewItem

    But the entire stereo is going for less than the faceplates alone?! How is that logical?

    be more careful about where you blast your tunes. when you are withing a couple miles of your house you should defiantly turn down the radio. and..yeah...remove the damn faceplate from the car when you're not in the car...it's harder for them to steal it if it's not in the car

    You do know that they make a removable face for a reason, right? But be happy if you ordered the face from Alpine you would be looking at $160-$275 easily

    At least they left you the rest of the head unit and didn't tear up your dash, trunk and the carpeting in between that had the CD changer's wiring. At least that's what happened while my car was at the body shop a year and half ago. But I feel for you, there really isn't any feeling quite like having your car broken into.
