Do any of you guys know if the Eclipse nav systems front cover or "face" is removable, like the LCD? I would be afraid to install this system to have someone break in and steal it. If you can disconnect the LCD or front cover, I might actuaally get one.

Eclipse Security Network.
I'm assuming that you bought it from a authorized dealer.
When you bought the radio you should have sent in a warranty card (along w/ a copy of the invoice) w/ information on your car. Within the first year if someone steals it and Eclipse can't find it, they will send you a new one. After the first year however, all they can do is try to find it. Think of it as a one year lojack for the radio.
BTW, if the dealer installed it, you will also get a 3 yr warranty.

I never understand why people worry about this....you can always put something in front of it when you park your car...or build a fake plate of some sort to go in front of it....put a graphic of a really cheezy stock radio on a fitted piece of plexiglas or something.
