Question by luvdemxmen:

i’m launching a small retail operation, and am looking for a very itemized listing of “non-merchandise” start-up items needed to open my store. i used to be a district manager and store manager, so i have a pretty good idea, but any help would be great. pens, pencils, etc… also, a generic list of services and accounts to open, like banking, locksmith, alarm company, etc. please don’t consider any item too small or obscure, lay it all on me. thanks!!

Question by E.M.:

I want to keep the car original and i want to get original GM keys. I don’t want to replace the ignition and locks but if it comes to i will. I don’t want to hire a locksmith because it seems to expensive. It might come out costing the same.

Got a problem with the passenger door on our Mazda 323, it won’t unlock, the button inside the door won’t go up or down, all the other doors work fine, but can’t unlock the passenger door from inside or outside.

I’m assuming some part of the locking mechanism has broken inside the door.

What i would like to know is who do i take it to? An auto electrician, a locksmith, or just a general mechanic?

Thanks.

Question by vikramkone:

Hi.
We recently rented a Toyotal corolla 2007 model car for rent from Avis and went to a beach. unfortunately the car keys got washed away and so we lost them. We called up a lock smith and he made a duplicate key which works for opening the car door and also driving the car.
My question is…since i have a full insurance from Avis, will i be reimbursed the locksmith’s charge (325$ ) .
also he did make only the manual key and the remote to auto lock and open the doors which is common these days is also lost. He obvioiously cant make it…so what shud i do now.
do u guys have any idea how much rental agency will fine for Lost keys with remote..
any help wud be appreciated

Thanks

I’ve heard that the dealer will make a spare set if I bring them the VIN – is this right? otherwise the best solution would be to get a locksmith, correct?

Thanks

I have now found the original key. I think the locksmith did something to the imobiliser when he made the new red key. My real question is , is there anyway I can get the old key working again, because it opens the door but it doesnt start the engine..?????????????

Our renters moved out and took all of the keys with them. We cannot for the life of us find our set of keys. Just trying to get an idea of what’s a fair price for that type of service before I dive into it. I’m in Maryland.
