Thanks. Took it to the dealer and let them remove, since it took 2 hours and a few drill bits to drill 1/4" into the lock. Took them a few hours too, but they found a tool that worked. Nuts in the bin now.


Only reason I came back was to thank those who offered constructive suggestions. To the others who prefer to ridicule, thanks but Google works without the backlash so I'll be using that for the future.


And you wonder why forums die. Moderator, feel free to delete my account.

RWD,
Don't go away mad, and don't take opinions personally. Opinions are like a $$holes. Everybody's got 1, nobody wants to hear it.
Shake it off, man. There's a lot of quality folk here, and some who have forgotten what it was like before they learned "everything".
Enjoy your Z.
