Yup, I locked my only key in my car. The only reason its my only key is that home depot and walmart and everyone else say they cant make that kind of key.

Anyway, do you guys have any suggestions on how to get them out. This Sucks.

 

My only hope is thst the guy that I bought the car from still has a key. He said his wife had one when i bought it so...

 

have you tried the coat hanger trick

 

No. i guess i could try. Has anyone done it before and it work?

 

If your car is anything like mine you should be able to crawl in through the rust hole under the driver's side storage bin

Also, I've never heared on anybody having trouble geting theit key copied befor, that's strange

 

I did it, but my moonroof was kinda messed up so I was able to lift it and fish 'em out with a hangar

 

Getting into a 1st gen is not that tough. But I am not going to get into that here. Pay the tow truck guy $25 to 'slim jim' your passenger door, takes less than 1 minute to do.

Oh yea, go to a real locksmith for them to make you 2 new keys. Walmart......eeeekk

 

my bros got a slimjim. I could try that.

 

do a search you can get in to your car for free and much easier than you think

 

hey, a slim jim, a wedge to go between the glass and the door, and a flashlight will make a 30 second job out of it. If you need a new slim jim tho, I sell them for 8 bucks shipped.

 

alright thanks yall. Im gonna go out and try to get in. Ill post back soon.

 

if your car is anything like mine find anyu keyaround the house similar size say mail key and try it in the rear hatch and doors i bet it will open one of them and if that fails to work try a popsicle stick lol damn first gen locks thengo get some better locks and a couple keys

 

yay. i got in

My tools -

Level(wedge)
Prybar(to bang the wedge down)
coat hanger
Pliers(to straiten the hanger)

 

A brick works good. Sorry I had to do that. I have locked my keys in my car many times and it sucks every time.

 

Have you ever tried using other random keys in your hatch lock? I have been able to open the hatch on all of my rx7's with random keys

 

i had my keys made at ace. they didn't have any problem copying.

 

cool. ill try ace. the ace down the street changed to a halls, but its still the same

 

get a copy of the key. ilco MZ13 works fine.

 

i have 3 copies of my FC key all over the house lol

 

I have the one I use, one in my bedroom, and one in my wallet.

That, and I can use a coat hanger like nobody's business. Among my friends, at Starbucks (where I chill in the afternoons watchin the ladies), and at the bar that I regularly frequent, I've become the locksmith.

 

When I had my keys locked in the seven I stucka coat hanger underneath the door handle and opened in that way just have someone hand to hold the door handle open.

 

Back when my car was my dad's daily driver, he locked the keys in the car one time when we were out buying fireworks. So, he looked around, found a nice, straight stick and whittled it down. Opened the door just fine. Heh. It was quite a humorous event.

 

i just keep a spare in my wallet, once i thought i locked my keys in my car, before i carried one in my walllet, but then i realized the door wasnt shut all the way...

 

Just an idea...
You could make a "slim Jim" out of a hack saw blade using a grinder.
Grind the teeth down and bevel the edge (to keep from scratching ****), and use the corner of the grindeing wheel to grind into the end of the blade where the hole is.


I locked myself out once, and it was pouring rain and the wife & I were out at a fancy restaraunt.
Ever since, I've carried a spare key in my wallet (I cut the plastic off the key so I barely know it's there).
I've had to use it three times in two years.

 

last time i locked my keys in my car i slimjimmed it with the windsheild wiper blades (the metal things), took under a minute....
