starion broken into (nz new not an import) previous owner had 6x9's in doors. Car thief takes 6x9's by ripping entire bottom insde trim off. Or most of it. Including wooden backing, plastic sheeting etc etc. Broke in by busting both door locks ie outside panel damage too. Insurance company decide to rite entire car off because you cant get black inside lower door trim in newzealand. After much too-ing and frow-ing. new custom made bottom panels and 6" kenwoods doing fine.
