I was at a friends house. Nothing stolen. It looks like the just hit the window in a downward motion clipping the door on the way down.

 

Check it:

 

Oh **** I missed that story. Damn.

 

What's with the beige sparco? That doesn't seem to match the color combo

 

Looks like it got shot with a .22

 

holy **** dude.....where they trying to break in or just vandilisim

 

Or someone threw a piece of porcelain at the window.

Thanks sucks man. Glad nothing serious was done.

 

Not Beige at all. its gray and black and matches very well.

It was pure vandalism I think someone ether hit it with some tool in a downward motion also hitting the door or someone threw a beer bottle at it from a speeding car.

I thought it was shot at first also but when I saw the door it very clear that something bounced off the door or window and hit the other.

 

I just had the biggest WTF moment of my entire life...

I go to unlock my car door and hear a faint click noise, which was odd. I then go to open the door, nothing happens the handle moves freely. I think, "hmm outside handle thingy dingy must be busted". So I squeeze into the pass side and attempt to open the drivers side from the pass side. Nothing happens handle moves freely...

My car is finally starting to look like a 8 year old car! Busted hid headlight, damaged front bumper, no working drivers side door handles, check engine light always on, scratches all over the place.

 

I can confirm that one...sunroof wont open, rear end started making noise when it squats (like bushings sticking), scratch on rear bumper where I closed the garage on it, dent from 3yr old learing how to open the truck door, CEL always on, faded black trim...etc

but you know what...it beats a $650 car payment!

 

cheers!

anyone know if the door latch is accessible with the window down?

I need to open the door to pull the panel off so I can see what needs replacing

 

I beleive it is

 

Excellent... Hopefully I can figure this out soon. My parents are coming into town on Wednesday lol.

 

This was the biggest PIA thing ever to fix on my 8. I was able to remove the door panel with the door closed though. You will need a whole new latch assembly though because usually it is the spring which you cannot find individually. I got mine form www.revvinsevens.com in Arlington.

 

**** revvinsevens. All I have to say

 

Man you know I'm ghetto... I'll prolly drill a hole for a piece of string and duct tape it to the door handle.

 

He is hit or miss. I know he is not honest with his descriptions but I have received what I have ordered in a timely manner. I needed a latch assembly quick and since he was in Texas I got it next day. But the Calipers I got said they had 5k on them and when they showed up they looked like then have spent the last ten years under water But I am rebuilding them and repainting them anyway.

Please don't

 

do it...but in antique pewter

 

Thats pure win right there.

 

Oh no,

 

thought you would like that

 

It is a little out of my budget though... I was thinking more of a gate latch style.

 

Bad ***!

 

LMK, I have some nice locks you can use.

 

I have this style in all finishes
