Yeh i have a Tracker etc but i dont like the idea of making it easyer for the S**t heads to nick my tools etc from the boot?
Anyway i have a nice set of shiny new locks but the shock that i could open both my T2's with the house key is suprising to say the least, i thought this only happened with Old Fords?

P.S. not sure if i'm going to the Mascrat Meet on monday night, its going to be a last minute thing.

Having bad locks saves the roof on a convertible. On the drivers side I only need to put the key in a quarter of the way and it will open. Haven't had my roof cut though - unlike a convertible I had in the past with good locks.

As pointed out by a Mate of mine, How many Tea leaf's try the locks first? They are Dumb they will try the Handle to see if its been left open if not then will Smash the window or slash the hood? They want to be as Quick as possable and dont have the IQ to think "old car! maybe its got bad locks"?
What can you say most of them are smack heads and so dont have too brain cells to rub together.
