happend at work this morining. they ddn't take a thing... not cds or tools. but they left the car in a near undrivable state.

luckily I work at an auto/hardware store, so i was able to get it driveable.

but now i Ihave to replace the locks... I cant afford new ones, so ill have to go junkyard style. this is a huge hassle. and no, my insurance does not cover vandalism.

 

i guess it's fun to fubar people's locks...

looks like they failed miserably trying to start your car...

car vandals = not smart

 

****** dip ***** and your jsut across teh water form me. thats too bad. but it could have been ALOT worse imagine if they had managed to start your car up drive away.

 

that sucks man
where in vancouver did it happen?
do u have an alarm on your car? if u dont u should get one
iv had mine broken into twice, but they never tried to steal the car, just fucked up the outside locks with like a screwdriver, its so lame, but o well
how much does a lock set cost?

 

man, that does suck. sorry to hear about another dipshit theif!!!! but if you haven't already, get an alarm!
jeff

 

I dont have an alarm. im trying to sell the car. i need the money for school.

i wish they had stolen the car... thats covered under my insurance. vandalism isnt.

does anyone know if i can use any locks from any fb?

 

Wouldn't you just love to catch idiots like this in the act.... . . . . no wait- then YOU would probably be in jail.

 

I'm waiting for someone to steal my truck. They'd pay me more than it's worth.

Sorry about your loss.

 

Just proves people are awful!!

Stupid **** nut retards!!!

I just made arangments to have my alarm installed next week. Alarm, proxsimity detection, keless/trunk release. I woulden't let them drill the dash for the light though!!!!

 

The door locks for all FB's are interchangable, but you'll have to get a locksmith to re-do the tumblers so that one key works for all of the car's locks.
The ignition lock is also interchangable, but the ignition SWITCH behind the lock must be from a similarly-equiped '84 or '85 RX7 (ie: if yours is a GSL, the switch from a GS won't work because there's no lead for your power options. I found this out years ago the hard way).
But most likely all the ****** damaged was the lock. The ignition switch itself is probably fine.
If you're looking for used parts, try Chris in North Vancouver. You can pm him on the BC rx7 forum. He goes by the forum name "myse". If he doesn't have the locks you need, he more than likely knows somebody who does.

 

Oh **** dude... too bad you can't catch em....or maybe that's a good thing....

Either way, if I ever catch anyone tryin to break into my car I'll rip their arms off.

Good luck on the repairs, I TOTALLy wish I would have bought that already, but alas, as you mentioned yourself...$$$$$

 

Dammit, I just read this and now you got me all paranoid..lol I just went and disabled my car to prevent it from running off. Thieves ****** suck!!!!!!!!

 

just grab a lil red LED light thingy stick it sumwhere obvious so it looks like a lil alarm light. it will at least deture the majority of stupid punks lookin fo ran easy ride to jack. or, each time you walk away or get to your car clang your keys a bit towards your car and chirp loudy to yourself

 

thanks for the info aviator.. I you've answered all the questions i was going to ask.

Pedestrian X, I even own a little red led and built a cicuit just like that for my friends volvo a few years ago. I just never got around to it.

 

was it parked on your property? If so, your homeowners insurance will cover it under general property damage.

 

he sed it happened at work. so i dont think it was parked on his property

 

If you need a lock, i might be able to help you out. PM me if you dont find one closer. Sorry about your luck.
