RE: how do you steal a scirocco ???

["Aireq" <aireq@u.washington.edu>]

Yeah I took the door handle to the dear a block away from my house. The guy
made a couple keys  from the code but none of them worked. I was trying the
one in the handle on the way home and it opened the handle if you didn't
push it in all the way but I couldn't get it to open the hatch, ignition, or
other door handle. So I just took the handle to a locksmith.

Aireq,
I finially got to the Dealership today and found out that there is a #
stamped on the door handle (it was on both L/R with my car) that the dealer
uses to make you another set of keys.
Took him (parts guy) all but 10 min. to make me a key that worked in both
door handles, the ignition and the rear hatch lock.
YeeeeHaaaa, I finally have keys for my car :^)))
If the door handles are the originals, it will be on the rotating part of
the handle that you squeeze to unlatch the door where it surrounds the lock
mechanism.
