      no, i do all my own car work provided i can, and im sure it will be time consuming but it cant be THAT hard, im sure the only one ill really need a guide for is the ignition lock, the other look pretty strait forward.

              Why do you need to replace the locks, did they steal your key as well?


              Car Safety / General Servicing Checks --------Basic suspension checks

              A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

              If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                no they jacked up my drivers door lock really bad(like i opened it with my forklift key), and they didnt hot wire it or anything, so they must have had a key that was close for ignition, and since its older and wearing down why not replace them all with a new set, its only 124$

                  for anybody that finds this thread the ignition one is "challenging" there will be a pin that u need to press down thats kind of under the windshield washer arm thingy(cant think of name lol) then there is also a set screw next to that, that needs to be un-done, you will have to use a pair of vice-grips or something along those lines, even if you take the washer arm thingy off you cant get it with a screw driver.
                  the doors and trunk were easy though

                    If I lived in a crime area like you, I would purchase an alarm, put some rear handles on the front(no locks, thiefs would be shocked,lol), and hide a kill switch somewhere. Kill switch most important, can`t steal it if you can`t start it.
