Someone tried to break into my car and broke my door lock. The lock cylinder and the piece it is attached to with the C clip was broke and fell into the door. I got a new lock cylinder, but the dealer couldn't locate the part that it was attached to. Was this a piece of the door handle itself? I hope not. The dealer quoted me $195 for a new handle. If it is attached to the handle, where can I get a drivers side door handle the cheapest? Friggin crooks.

TIA,
Brian, 92 SLC

Re: Door Handle Broke By Thief (G6660)

Dude I was pissed when i heard my alarm go off at like 4 in the morning and had to run outside in my boxers in the cold only to find that my window was scratched and my metal bat was pretty frozen to my hand.
Turned out to be some punk, I figured he would come back cause it was the weekend, and streos have been going left and right where i live. so i waited with my paintball gun and pelate gun and the biggest mother fing kid you have ever seen next to me. just kinda sat out side dirnking coffe and smoking cigerettes all night. kid walks up my dirve way around 130 never new what hit him, he was all sorts of different colors when the cops came. Made me feal like i was the sh1t for like um 2 seconds. I spend all the money i have on my car, no punk is gonna take that from me. In the immmortal words of DMB "you pay for what you get"

My door handle was broke when I got my car. I knew they were flimsy from the start so I just went ahead and shaved them. It makes it a little harder for those a#%*#%*s to take anything.
