Plastic tubing is very useful

Sorry dude, that constitutes automotive discussion, steer clear until you have access to the advanced forums.

I thought that was because of security concerns, I havent yet released any mission critical information that would comprimise the security of american and foriegn autos. There are many other reasons to go inside of an automotive door panel than to remove the locks you know.

For example, fixing dents from behind, replacing power windows... smuggling drugs from mexico, replacing bad wiring, installing new speakers, point is, that SHOULD be known, fact is door cavities can be dirty, and a LOT of the cuts and scratches obtained from the surfaces within WILL get infected.

I had one of my Locksport chapter members open a very cheap tubular lock with some plastic tubing. No it was not a kryptonite bike lock. He did not want to spend the time to make his own tubular lock pick or drop the money down to buy one so instead he spent an hour and a half jamming pieces of small plastic tubing into the key way until finally he opened it. I didn't have the heart to tell him if he had spent the time trying to make a tubular lock pick he would be halfway there. LOL!
