I locked myself outta my 914 tonight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
Got a ride home, need to go back and get in. I have the key with me. It locks the door, but won't open it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) It's the first time I've locked it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Help me get in so I can stop (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) and start (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

Alrighty then.
1. AAA. They can open most things. 2. I didn't know about [1], so I had to try all, and I mean all, of the suggestions tossed my way. So things that can sometimes work mostly depend on how shrunk/crappy the rubber seals are around your windows. The game is to either roll down a window, or pull on an interior door latch. If you can get a coat hanger in, you can try to release the rear targa seals. If you can get them loose, you can lift the lid an inch or so and get to the window crank or the door latch. (this did not work for me) From one side of the car, you can run a long wire across to the other side and get to the latches. (this did not work for me) With a heavier wire (used for hanging a second closet rod), bent appropriately, I was able to move the window crank down. There was a slight opening at the front of the drivers window, and I could work it in from there. Once you start the crank moving, you're on a roll. kim. |
