I have some #GenZ coworkers and was telling them about how we used to take our car stereo face plates with us when we left the car back in the days when stereos weren't integrated into the dash and you wanted a nice one.
They were very amazed. So I made this meme.
@renwillis loved that clarion head unit
@renwillis Or if you were lazy like me, pop it off, throw it in your glove box or arm rest, and hope that any thieves would be too dumb to check there.
@renwillis Fun story:
Sis "inherited" dad's baby blue Saab 99 with a POS stereo in it when she went off to Uni.
One morning every single car had been broken into on the parking lot and their stereos taken... except in sis car there was a better one lying on the seat.
Our guess is that the thieves had realized THAT one was worthless, broken into my sis' car, found that one even WORSE and just dumped the better one in her seat.
Dad installed it a week later after the police didn't want it.
