i see the point to both sides here... I think if you have a nice system in your car and post in on here saying you do- its smart to not indentify your car so blatantly in case someone wants to jack your stuff... Even if it IS insured it still pisses you off when people dont respect your property... If your car is nothing special I see no big reason to worry about it? However it typically is better to be smart and protect yourself when its so easy to do so like this situation. Its easier to keep doors closed for those who do look for oppurtunities to steal/lie to their advantage rather than trying to stop it after the fact, dont you think?
