I agree. Hopefully the police will come up with some kind of evidence and come up with a suspect. It is likely that whoever this person(s) is/are lives in or near your apartment area.

Updated: Replaced the locks and installed an Autozone alarm with an ignition kill, so the old key won't start it unless they sort out the wiring I ran in the harness.

Oh, and TC, do you still have that Supra, I wouldn't mind getting another car. Can't have too many now, can we?

i'd be more concerned of them having my apartment key than anything else.

having someone with the ability to steal my car = why i pay insurance
having someone with access to my home= me sitting by the door + them getting shot
