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. |

I locked my keys in the car several times, almost always under the same circumstances in spring or fall.
Cold morning, wear a jacket. Drive somewhere, by which time it's warm enough that I don't need a jacket. Turn the car off, pocket the keys, and get out, while simultaneously locking the door. Decide to take off my jacket, toss it into the car, and close the door. Take two steps and curse. The fun part was that I kept a key in my wallet in case I locked my keys in the car. Unfortunately, my wallet would invariably be in the breast pocket of my jacket, which was now locked inside my car along with my keys. Oddly, haven't done repeated that mistake for several years now. |
