Nah didn't even think of pics! SWMBO was too sh!tty about it!
This is how it goes, I went to take the cruiser this morning to work so I could wash it, found out the keys were locked in, called some locksmiths from work found out it was really expensive (only one locksmith here), SWMBO gets out of bed and gets ready to go into town she can't find the keys for either car, looks in the cruiser keys in it! Rings me at work Quote- "What the F**K are the keys doing in the cruiser" I tell her I did it before and then the approx quote I got from the locksmith $80-$300, she swears some more about its too close to christmas etc, So I shut my shop drive home grab a rock and put it through the window! Grab the keys out and tell her heres your f**king keys for your heap of s**t!
She is currently on the way to winscreens O'brien!
I am currently looking for another place to stay for a few days!

`NRMA has glass insurance for $50 a year. If a side window gets "vandalised" its still covered. I got it for windscreens. I bought my swb and the screen was farked. Insured it and then 3 months later rego came up. Cheapest windscreen i eva bought .
Yeah I have insurance for a piece of glass each year but already used that by putting my head against it when I fell into a big rut without a seatbelt on!

And that was only 1 week after I got the car!
Oopsy Daisy. . The local natives in Narranderra apparently twist a screwdriver between the glass and the frame and it just shatters the glass with out making heaps of noise. not as fun as a brick though

Yeah but when I get p!ssed off I don't care what happens!
The missus didn't get a piece of glass for it, and won't tell me how much it will cost! (She isn't talking to me for some reason!) So I will try the wreckers next week if they r open!
As for the misses, Thats my life story these days. She said she didnt want anything for our 1st wedding annivesary, So i didnt. She argued so i went outside and worked on patrol and played with dogs.
I have done this once in my 100 series, called RACQ and they came out with a nice tool kit to slip beside the window. I think they got in the rear passenger door but it took about half an hour and we almost gave up.
also had this happen before. keys in ignition. tools used large flat screwdriver, coathanger. method straighten coathanger and then rebend into smaller almost closed hook, put masking tape around screwdriver shaft, insert screwdriver between door and A-pillar at corner of roof and windscreen, lever door outwards, insert coathanger hook first and grab keyring, (pull out of ignition in my case), bring keys up and out next to screwdriver
Is there an easy way to get them out at all?
