This whole key business is complete BS. Apparently R129 keys are just now

Did the SELs have wipers for the headlights? I think I have seen some
around with wipers, was thinking it would be neat to put those on the

What about these tools? Do different ones fit different
cars? Where can they be had? I can't recall
to turn, but it works all the same and cuts down on the
bulk.

2 issues!
1. My 115 does not have vent windows.
No wind wings at the front of the front door windows? Hmmm.
2. I have not figured out how to lock the doors without using the key in

unlocked it with a slim jim (flat stainless strip with notches at the end) in
about five seconds. A couple of years later I did it again, at home this time.
Went to Carquest and bought the tool I'd seen the cop use,

Being in possesion of burglary tools while caught in the act is
evidence of criminal intent. Crowbars, glass cutters, lock picks,
