the other day a lady asked me for help ... she had locked her keys in her car and she was worried because it was about to rain and she had left her top down.



sorry, i couldn't resist ... i don't know what to tell you ... can you call work and let them know you might be late?

good luck

I've been there once and my advice will work great, but if you've got tint, it might cause a couple scratches:

Straighten out a wire coat hanger and slide through the window opening furthest from the lock (near the door jam and closest to the quarter window). The upper part of the window is usually to difficult to get a coat hanger through correctly or easily. Having a slight bend midway on the hanger will help you push the door lock button.

I've never heard of any 94/98 owner getting in the short way, so you'll need a plenty long coat hanger.

Good luck!
