Angry I Got Jacked!

My truck was broken into last night! The damn lowlifes broke off my driver side door handle and helped themselves to all my stuff (stereo, amps, phone, etc..)
Does anyone have any ideas about how to reinforce this weak link? I can't believe how easy they popped off that handle, there is hardly any damage around the hole. I'm thinking about shaving off the handles and getting remote door openers, anyone done that?
There's gotta be a more secure way to put in those handles!?!?!?

Any ideas?!

Get the Viper 791XV alarm that pages your remote - so the next time they try anything, your alarm will page you even if they cut the siren wire first.
Thats what I got after I got jacked. Had it put in my F150 and BMW M3. So even if they trip any sensors, the alarm will chirp the remote to let me know whats going on.

Here is the link that tells you about the alarm.

Good Luck
Mike

I say Sh**t the *******!!!!!
