Just looked at Garrison replock to replace the ford lock and then found a video on utube showing everyone how to pick the locks.

Seems to be that what ever lock u have there is a kit u can buy to get passed them.

There's no such thing as an unpickable lock. The tibbe locks can be opened very quietly though, you'll make a bit of noise 'picking' the Garrison lock.

What do we do, I might disable the front door lock from opening the rear door just to try and slow things down, my tools might be safer that way.

I'm not that worried about them stealing van, I think that is a different bunch of thieves that now what they are doing to get passed the immobiliser, I'm more worried that they can open the back doors by pick locking the front door.
