Slim Jim?
No, not the kind Macho Man Randy Savage used to promote!
The one to open a locked door! My litttle brother locked my keys in the damn car, and now I am screwed. Does anybody have or know where I can buy a slim jim? Or maybe any other ideas on how to get into the car. Since the drivers side door was not shut right I have been trying with a coathanger to trigger the trunk switch but have had no success I have also tried to hit the unlonl button and move the damn unlock thing. Pretty much like I said before I am screwed. I have been thinkiing about messing up the trunks lock but I wanna leave that as the last resort. Please help.

I used to use a 1/2" wide piece of aluminum. Slide it behind the window at the back of the door and push it forward to unlock the door.

You can pull the window oput enough to get your hand in there and unlock it, the window won't break, I have done it before and I'm not skinny

Yes, but that tends to loosen the window so that it doesn't seal as well at high speed.

Did U get it unlocked or is it sitting outside with the keys still in it?
If it is still sitting outside with the keys still in it, what's your address and what time do U go to bed?
