Desperate Need of HELP!

I just locked my keys in my camaro. Luckily I am at home and the car is off. But they are the only set of keys that I have. When I bought the car, it only came with one set. So, I really have no way of getting to them. I am NOT willing to break a window or do any bodily damage or otherwise to my baby. Does anyone have any tricks I could try? Its a 94 Z28 with power locks but no keyless entry, if that helps. I freakin out man! Help.

You can use the slim-jim with 4th gens? I didn't think you could.

Coat hanger and the power door lock button is the way I have done it in the past. You have to start the hanger threw the front part of the window near the side mirror then slide back. Shouldn't be that difficult.

It's funny you mention that way John. I remember when my pops locked the keys in this Buick Park Avenue, all power. We had to use some thin, thin sheet metal to hit the power lock switch on the driver side (we went through the passenger window). It was indeed a bitch.

I found an easier way! I went to the dealership with ID and proof of ownership and I got 2 keys made for only 3 dollars. Now I have extra door keys and my original keys back. What a bonus. Anyway, thanks for responding so quickly, I'll have to experiment with some of your guy's methods sometime.

Damn 3 bucks?! I need to go and get me a set, I only have one set of keys.. the locks and the ignition.

It costs less when you go to the locksmith vs. having the locksmith come to you.

plus door keys are cheap... the ingnition key with the VATS is around 24 bucks to have made... and only the dealer can do it...

Not true Dave, I had my key scanned and got the code. The ordered a key threw ebay for like 3 bucks I think it was. Then just went to a random locksmith and had them cut the key.

I thought the ignition keys would be more exspensive than around $24. Hell, from the dealer, I thought the door keys would cost like $20 each. I should get another ignition key made because I only have one...on a side note, I am just glad that I got lucky enough to lock them in the car when I was at home and after I opened my garage. I wouldn't have been able to get all of that stuff together to go to the dealership.
