do it GTA style. break the glass n hot wire the car.. and away she goes..

juz kidding. prolly u can use the old skool hangar-to-unlock-the-door thing and after that you can bring the key hole(not sure what its called) to locksmith to do a rekey?

a stick of gum, a paper clip and some copper wires... MacGuyver style!

but in all seriousness, your best bet would be to call up the manufacturer... probably give ya some ****-and-bull about replacing the "red key"... cost ya about $800 for that...

LOL ok this is going to sound weird but depending on how old the car is there is a little trick to opening the locks without breaking windows or the use of wires and stuff. A tennis ball! Yup i shall not explain further but iv used a water horse connecter to open up my old car which was a 91 model. go on youtube and search it up. GOOD LUCK!

haha, that's a good one. I did a search on youtube and found the clip. Have you tried before? Does it really work? Kinda curious.

if u have a the original manual, should have a key number inside the first page, bring that number to a keys smith, they will be able to cut u a new key for like under $15

happen to me locked the spare and original keys in the boot of my delsol, and thats all i had to do, bring in the key number to them

that will work if there is no chip in the key....

lol thsi reminds me few months back i lost my fukn one and only bimmer keys at the subbies in the city (no luck n noone returned it).. called nrma, they tried opening the car all nite til morning , no luck, only managed to open the boot. in the end had no choice but to towe the car from city to parra .. ordered new keys from bmw germany from trivett for $500+ which took 10 days. fuk me dead no shop can duplicate the key, only way to get another spare is to buy another key from germany

well frankly it has on my nissan pintara. but to be honest the car was older than i am so i cant be certain that it will work on a newer car.
