Be aware that Texas is the only state that has conditions which, by statute, allow lethal force to be used to protect property. The owner decides whether or not the thief's life is worth more the car stereo that he just stole. If you are willing to lose your stereo, that is for you to decide. If you are willing to kill for it, that is your decision as well. Texas will back you up whichever you choose.

I know this is getting off topic and I am seriously not trying to offend anyone, but DAMN am I glad that I don't live in Texas. People seriously think that a car stereo is worth more than someone's life? Please.
