I wonder if shops will still install used (stolen) units regardless? Or maybe they are just being shipped out of state or broken down for raw materials.

- d6ba56c039d9 5y agoC'est la vie. You're not supposed to steal cats either. The one thing that's fairly hard to get around is the biannual inspection. In days of yore, a box of donuts could get someone to hot pipe your car. Now, not so much. It was kind of a necessity if you owned a car that wouldn't pass even in absolutely pristine new condition.
