    Annoyed. Only just noticed this morning that some fucker had broken into my car the other night.
    (There was a whole spate of peoples cars being vandalised/broken into)

    I mean there was zero items of value in my car (i'm not an egit radio face plate satnav all come to bed with me.)

    But, theres a nice little hole behind the door lock.

    Will it matter if I leave it open ( the car in the bay next to me has left her hole open before ((from a previous break in))
    Can it just be a case of banging a screwdriver back in again through the hole and unlocking it?

    Or should I just filler it, and hope it doesnt jam up the mechanism.

    the hole must be there for a reason to help unlock it so to avoid it happening again id sort it out

    i think filler might just fall through, id just find a replacement door

    To save another thread in the future, is it easy swapping door locks over? as it is i've got 2 keys atm, one for the boot (differant lock) and one for central locking and ignition.
    And guide you can link me to?
