Lock my damn keys in the car

Probally one of the dumbest moves I have ever made. Anyone know how to pop open the door? also the Driver side door is NOT closed all the way...

you cant use a door wedge or a buddy and see if the top of the door will open just enough to stick a coat hanger through and try to hit the unlock button. or coat hanger to jimmy it open, but that can scratch the window.

Coat hanger to the Unlock switch. This is why I keep a spare key in my wallet all the time along with an extra key with the unlocking mech. at home. Good luck. I did lock my keys in the Old Accord once. Lucky for me the window was cracked and I could hit the unlock button and got in the car! Hopefully you'll do the same.

Luckily since the door was on closed all the way....this is what I did....
Since I was fixing my door speaker my door handle was not on the door

Then I took a hanger and made a loop. If I pull one end of the hanger the loop tightens.... After 10 mins I got the loop around the lock...pulled the bitch up.... It was a real Macgyver moment for me....

good job. the only issue is the spare key is doing you no good when you lock your door and the spare key is not with you.
