oh really? cus in my old es300 and my parents new es330 there is one so that when u give ppl the valay key they cant get into the glove and the button in the glove disables the latch to open the trunk so they cant get in.... or else the valay key not opening the trunk would be pointless cus they can jus use the latch

Well, i think the latch handle is a cable anyways, running from the driver's side seat area on the floor, so i don't think there is any such disable device, unlike in the ES's where they are buttons on the dash to the left of the steering column.

wow that really sucks man im sorry to hear.. i live near there and the neighborhood is pretty decent and safe usually... if i have to park on the street in nyc i never leave anything out in the open in the view of windows. not saying you did or not. just sucks that it had to happen.

most likely crackheads were bored. I never have any issues parking my car in the city on the streets when I go to the East Vill. I go to Leopard Louge every so often
