These headlights are so pathetically easy to steal that a 5 year old could do it . . . the hood latch is so close to the sparse grille that a screwdriver can pop it and open the hood. . .then the lights are fastened with two measly screws. . . .Nissan knew darn well how expensive these are and with design centers in the US they know just how prevalent auto theft and vandalism is . . .they know about air bags being stolen for profit because they're expensive too . . they should take steps to make these items more difficult to remove . .. .in the '80s with cheap ignitions Japanese cars became easy to steal . . back then Japanese mfrs didn't know about crime in the US . . .that was fifteen years ago and it's time for the mfrs to get with it. . . .if nothing else lawsuits like this can impact them with a poorer reputation and declining sales of certain models. . .if the passenger compartments were as easy to break into you can guarantee that this lawsuit would have not been so easily derided. . .
