Great Start To The Weekend

[TURNER]

Just got back from work and went to the car only to find that some scum bag :tsktsk: had used a screwdriver and hammer to get into the car doesn't look like they got into it but they made a mess of the lock

does anyone know i.e chris shipley or orthers the prices of a lock barrel random or to key number through Lexus or anywhere else

need to do something quickly as i don't know how secure the lock is

ANY IDEAS

mate that sucks.. they would have been better off beating the window and you would have been better off too... i have not heard of many lexi had this happen too.. kids tend to leave these alone i would imagine.

they probably would not have got in by yanking out the lock.. afterall its not a vauxhall astra...

[Bazza-old]

bad news

hope there isnt any damage to the bodywork

if the lock is knackered try filling it up with superglue or epoxy resin

at least it may secure it till you can replace it

[DUNCAN]

Sorry to hear that Andy,

Is there any damage to the door skin ?

[TURNER]

CHEERS LADS

i'm waiting till the morning to see what actual damage there is fingers crossed there's not a lot

How bad was the actual damage mate?

[TURNER]

Hi All

The door skin on the car is ok but there are 3 or 4 long scratches round the lock

not to deep and might buff out

but the lock is shot so i went out and got some metal putty

which sets hard and put it in the lock till i can get it fixed

been quoted £80 for a new lock set just waiting to see how much

a lock from Lexus is

on the bright side, the remote will still work and give you the alarm protection too.

hope you get a good deal on the locks mate!

[TURNER]
