where did it go?

So 3 days ago i was getting in the truck and it was unlocked... which i never leave it unlocked... i get in and my steering wheel horn button cap and one of the door handles are gone! no sign of forced entery or anything and noone i know could have a key around here. In Australia the older cars only had 6 different keys to every model. Is it the same with the keys here or is some1 just breaking into my truck?

Re: where did it go?

oh the vent windows aren't easy to open on this truck. I still have trouble opening them with 2 hands. And yes i'm glad they didn't break anything or take anything big.

Re: where did it go?

I dunno, is crack a big problem around there? may be the key thing. My mom said one time she went to get in car and got in the wrong car and the door key worked but the ignition key didn't then she started noticing she wasn't in her car and locked it back and ran...lmao

Re: where did it go?

i know my truck if some one wanted to they could get in. if you have a blade screw driver you can pop open the rear siled window.

glad they only took parts.
