Hi,
I just bought a 1994 Celica ST liftback and as my luck would have it, just locked my keys in the car. I tried a slim jim and even tried wedging it, but didn't want to push it and shatter the window. Is there a better technique I can get in without calling a lock-out company/AAA? Thanks in advance. |

Thanks for all your help guys! I feel like such an idiot, but i'll try the coat hanger method first thing tomorrow.
Neon: It was an idiotic yet simple move on my part. I just got it home, and left the keys in the ignition while marveling at how great the car was. After taking it all in for a good hour, I locked it and went inside. It was at that VERY moment when I realized the key was still in the car. I know, scumbag brain... Again, thanks you guys! I'm sure I'll be back with a plethora of questions in the future- and yes, I'll diligently search first!

I cant tell you how many times its saved my life. Most people with 6gcs put it in the grill on the passengerside of the radiator. There is a small metal ledge that will keep it secure. |
