Evening all, as a long time trading locksmith I want to go into the automotive side of the industry. Have been looking at the lishi picks as these seem to be the best on the market. Looking to buy a set of 2 in 1 picks or 3 in 1 picks, but not sure which ones to go for. I'm looking to gain access to vehicles then move on to programming as my funds allow. Any info apriciated, cheers

If you mean which vehicle specific picks to buy .. That is kind of a difficult question .. The picks that you would use the most, varies based on your service area.. For example where I live, Lishi picks for any model of Pick up truck would be my best bet ..
So I would say .. Without looking like a stalker or like your casing the joint... Go down to your local market, bar, shopping center, etc .. Somewhere there are a lot of cars... Spend some time, taking an inventory of the make and model of vehicle you see the most... Start with those picks and grow your collection as the call out start pouring in ..
Hope this helps..
When I finally leave this world.. Will someone please tell my wife what I have REALLY spent on locks ...

In my ventures with vehicle lock outs my concern was the same. I found that most locks by me are wafer locks which are pickable rather easily but also laser cut keys are increasing so i picked up a rake set for them that dine the trick but also tibbe locks are here so i have a pick for that but don't forget there are other entry techniques like a rid based entry etc.. You can get a complete lishe 2in 1 kit here for £400 not sure about america
