Re: [DML] Factory Shifts/Key Code

["dmcorlando2003" <SundeQuick@xxxxxxx>]

This may come as a shock to some...but hopefully not..LOL  Any good 
locksmith can make a key for your car in a matter of minutes.  I once 
lost my keys to a Honda I owned (only set.)  My uncle who is a 
locksmith came out and hade a key made in litterally 10 minutes.  I 
laughed and said it was just that my car was easy.  So to prove his 
point that he could do it to another car he promptly made a key to 
the car parked next to me and I watched in amazement as the door 
locked popped up and the door opened.  

He said the proceedure isn't that hard at all.  When you put a balnk 
into the lock you turn it side to sid eand the internals of the lock 
will leave scratches on the black.  The blank is then filed and again 
it is tried. Eventually after a few tries of turning and filing the 
key will turn all the way and the door open.  

The funny thing is most alarms will honk your horns when they go 
off.  Simply reach under the front and unplug them...problem solved.

Also, if somebody really wants your car they will get it.  Do like 
the Repo guys do.  Simply backup to it and tow it away.  No alarm no 
matter how sophisticated will prevent that...
