Organised gangs do what organized crime groups do: on order koplampjes to steal.

It took a number of years ago as a plague on the Netherlands: Porsche cars with and without headlights. Both Cayenne’s, Panamera’s, as 911 messages were remarkably often deprived of their light units, typically using an industrial suction cup, that allows them to from their enclosure to be drawn. Even our CELEBRITIES couldn’t escape it.

Suction cup

The headlights in modern Porsches are not fixed with bolts. It is a system, that with the force necessary to force from the outside, as it turned out. PON came up with an aftermarket solution: a eenwegsboutje that after confirming a case of theft must make substantially more difficult.

Meanwhile, the Porsche in the Belgian Bruges and Antwerp, the doomed. In the last weekend there are six Porsches stripped of their lamps. “It is already the second time they have my vehicle to target. I consider my Porsche to sell,” said an aggrieved Cayenne-owner at HLN. repairs cost him at the time, 4,000 euro, including the promise that they better confirm were (the eenwegsboutje probably?), but to no avail. Further, there is still a Cayenne Turbo and a Cayman of their lichtpitten stripped.

Perhaps it is in the early stages to do well, but then you have really something stronger is needed.
