locked the keys in the car and i wanna know how to get into it without breaking glass or setting anything on fire....Here's what I have tried before (yeah yeah i should get a backup set of keys, but i dont trust my parents):

1)Trying to get a hanger through the targa top, didn't work when i tried to pry the targa off, i cracked a very small part fo the fiberglass and stopped.

2)pushing in the window channel seal to provide the opening....tried this, i consider it my last resort.


*now i know the door handles push these paddle things to open the door, is there a way i could make a flat piece of something with a 90 degree bend in it to push a paddle maybe?

alright, the easy approach to the targa thing didn't work, so apparently the way the system is constructed, i have to get to the driver side rear targa latch through the passenger side window....ya think one coat hanger length is enough?

no you should be able to get the latch on the side you are working on unless your latches are on the wrong side if they will even fit. basicly just bend a short hook with an up sweep. then just get then under the latches and pull, should open right up
