Default Breaking into Cars...

Hi Guys,

a slightly challenged (blonde) mate of mine has locked her keys in her '99 Forester and has no spares . All windows/doors/boot are locked and secure.

Because the 'button' is on the side of the door, the old packing tape trick won't work and a coathanger won't get past the rubber seals.

Has anybody got any break and enter tips? What about the RAC, a Subaru Dealer or even a locksmith?

Cheers

if u smash the windscreen - firstly it wont just brake into pieces - as it should be anti shatter - and if it does your gonna have glass all through your interior . Probably best to rethink that approach champ.

RAC actually bend the door frame out in order to get a rod down to unlock the car. I saw them do it once to a brand spankers BMW 4wd. Once they had unlocked the car he had to bend the door back to shape so it fit right again... Only talking mm's here but it was weird to watch.. The owner looked a bit p&ssed but then again he did lock his keys in the car....

Question. could a locksmith actually pick the car door lock?
