Stolen Tow Hooks
 
I rented an H3 in Vegas drove over to Lake Powell. While out on the houseboat someone stole ALL THREE tow hooks off the H3. Anyone heard of this going on?

I had the full coverage insurance. They were so wrapped up in the cracked windshield(Took a rock east of Zion) they didn't notice the hooks were missing when I turned it in.

Didn't know there was a market for stolen H3 tow hooks...

Some people will steal anything...

Were they at least the chrome tow hooks?

I've heard of the spare tires being stolen, but not the tow hooks.

Maybe someone was looking to swap theirs out for chrome and didn't want to get ripped off by their dealer...

So they ripped you off...:twak:

:popcorn: I guess they come off easy enough,unless you have a 06 early build then they got the bolt behind holding them in .and would be difficult to get them off quick.

doesnt the spare tire have a lock nut? like i can swear i have a lock for the tire, and roofrail. maybe im wrong. But the rails came with a key i think, but i havent thought of that for almost a year. (my 3 is almost 1..in october) 5150miles, and going strong

Mine doesn't have a lock. I believe I've read that the '06 did have a lock though.
My buddies dad used to work for GM and his friends that still work there told him that someone were stealing the spare tires right out of the GM lot.

Who did you rent the H3 from? I recently had a rental piece of junk from National. I would have liked to had an H3, so I would have felt at home.
