I betcha your car was broken into when the previous owner had it by someone jamming a screwdriver into the drivers side keyhole. He probably just covered it up with the escutcheon since that's cheaper than fixing the locking mechanism.

somebody stuck a screwdriver in there to break the cylinder.sometimes they break it good enuff to get all the windows to roll down.the previous owner used the passenger side escutehon and cylinder to avoid future break ins.the screw for the cylinder is by the side of the door covered by a black grommet.people do this all the time like switching xenons for regular lamps on i35's.

lol vinny.. that sucks that it happened twice..

for my intelligent key, if i leave my ikey in the trunk and close it, it'll open right back up bcuz it detects the key.. i guess it's a safety thing

Yes, it's very ez to break into our G I mean there is no barrier between the glass and the windows. The only thing we have is a rubber seal. Weak!

It's not going to look pretty. Our G is just made that way. Nothing we can do about it.
