Head unit stolen, car not turning over

So I had my car broken into last night and had my head unit stolen.
They just RIPPED it out with no regards for anything else.
The car now won't turn over. The HVAC system 'works' meaning it blows air and changes temperature, but none of the lights light up and the information strip across the top of the unit (above the vents' shows no information.

I had an aftermarket double din with the Metra kit.

The car will turn over (Motor will spin) but the car won't start (No ignition)
If the anti-theft wired in through the HVAC/Stereo unit?

Any help would be great, thank you!

Could be anything, there is can bus wiring back there, it's likely a short. You have to troubleshoot. Just let the insurance deal with it.

This is the downside to an aftermarket headunit.

Room fuse popped, must be a loose wire flapping around back there.
Insurance adjuster is looking at it tomorrow and we'll go from there.
