It wasnt bad enough they took the car, but then denied you a beer when you found out. Just wrong.

Glad you are getting it back, good luck.

The garage will be closed and the keys lock in the house.They kept my keys and the key fob so I guess I'm gonna go see Mr Goodwrench to have the spare fob reprogrammed and the lock/ignition replaced.Got lucky once,don't need 'em following me to dinner and taken it again.Anybody know if that's something I can do myself or if I have to go to the dealer?

Wow, glad to hear it was recovered and not stripped or totalled. That's rare.

Must be all that clean living, eh?

Now that you have it back you should get some friends camp out on the roof, leave your garage door open with the cars locked and wait for someone to come by. You wouldn't think that the same retarded f*ckers would conme back but you'd be suprised, and if they show up do things to make yourself feel better i.e. fractured skull, eye gouge, hang them from their gonads, etc...

Glad to hear you got the car back hun.
If you got to shbox.com there's a 'howto' on reprogramming the key fob. The stolen fob will still operate the door locks tho'.

They are only easy to steal when the owner is a dumb a** (that would be by the way). I left the garage door open, got side tracked workin' outside and left my keys sitting on the roof!! Still ballsy in my opinion to walk right in my garage.
