Let me point out the 1982 oldsmobile. This car could be entered with a coat hanger in about 30 seconds.
Thief number one: Pryed out the driver's side lock cylinder to gain entry and then busted up the column so much the car couldn't be started.
Thief number two: busted pbuttenger side rear fixed window. Busted up the column so bad that the car would not go into drive. It took me an hour to rig it so it would go into drive so we could get where it could be worked on.
Now I got a chance to study these GM steering columns fixing this mess. Without getting into detail stealing these cars wouldn't take much effort and could be done without busting stuff up. Yet, the theives spent all this time doing destructive 'work'.
The same was true with just about everyone I've know who had a car broken into a stereo stolen or whatever. The thieves always do it the hard way busting all sorts of stuff up.
And BTW, hammer drills have a rotation setting for use on metal, that's why
No, because it's there from the factory.
Criminals are often destructive moronic thugs. Keep that in mind.
