  • The Car Gods Hate Me

    Poly: Yes, che, but everyone else hats you to.

    Last night, while I was at my plastic model club, someone jammed a pair of scissors into my driver's side keyhole, breaking it. Two other cars also got hit. One of them had both of his locks ruined.

    Now teh wife has locked her keys in the car on the other side of town.

              Come to think of it, he had issues wrt being a pedestrian in downtown Chicago years ago. I think you're right, he should stay put.

                There are better ways to ruin scissors.

                  Che: batting a straight set of whiffs in transportation apparently.

                  What is the value of ruining your lock that way? Is it just random vandalism?

                    Perhaps some cars let you open the door once you've done such? Anyway, get keyless entry

                              did they break the tip of the scissors off in the key hole? If so use pliers and try to get a grip or a pick end to move the metal tip of the scissors enough to get a grip (or pop it out), if not, you might be able to bend any metal blocking the key's path. I doubt they could have seriously damaged the actual key path. Check for alignment problems, put the key in easy and see if it starts taking a weird angle as it goes in, if so, remove the key and go in with a driver or pick end and "gently" bend the pathway back to perpendicular. The damage shouldn't be too far in...

                              oh yeah, when trying to dislodge any metal use a magnet. Just put it against the keyhole while leaving enough room for the pick end to operate and it should grab any metal you dislodge.

                              attach spare keys via magnets to your frame somewhere out of sight
