listen to these guys mate locks out job. dnt listen to that ant and his smash the sh!t out your car method. geezer ent a clue. i suggested boot lock as most thieves try doors so if the lock broke but the boot still closes its not a urgent fix to get the lock replaced where a door might be. (or a window in ants great idea).lol.  :undecided:

ye cuz popping a lock or breaking into the engine bay is more damage than smashing a window in . ye good one mate ye !!!! 

Yeah, it is. With a broken window, all you need to do is replace a window and not have to go through body repair from diving in with a screw driver.

right so wat body panel are we replacing or repairing by popping a boot lock?????? you ent a clue mate wat u doing offering advise??? your the only one suggesting doing the window in. popping a boot lock wont damage any bodywork the locks in the surround of the handle. getting AA like wayne suggested or locksmith is either cheapest or free and best advise or bust the lock is the second less expensive to sort rather than your great idea of smashing the sh!t out of the window. its mess takes time to arrange a fitment of a new one cost involved etc its not worth it not to mention the draw backs of security and lack of it whilst waiting for replacement glass.if i were you i'd stick to the advice on how to live are lives in good moral standing than anything to do with cars. :nerd:

sorry to hear about the keys but  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: at the some of the advice givers  :laugh: :grin:

1, AA or RAC etc - if your not covered, find a friend who is, i had a mates  mini broken into by my AA cover

2, Auto locksmiths

3, Hammer, not brick,  :laugh: cos with the best will in the world, popping locks can and will damage paint, and as mentioned, you will have deadlocks so wont work anyway  :grin: :laugh:
