Break In

[xviciousx]

Does anyone here have any idea how to break into a 1994 Escort? My girlfriend had locked her keys in the car and now we're desperate to figure out how. RSVP.

Yeah I have mine all the time. Is yours automatic or manual locks?
Mine are manual. Take a close hanger (metal one) Unwind it and bend one end of it about 2 inches to the side and 2 inches up. stick it between the glass and the rubber strip on your window. If it is hard to get in start near the door handle their is a small opening their. slide untill you are right next to the lock and start to pull gently up and down. when you see the lock wiggle your close keep trying it may take awhile till you get the hang of it. once you learn it it is a snap. I teach school and the students would often lock my keys in the car as a prank durring shop class. besides ocasionly I have locked mine in as well. If you want more detail email me and I will try to help more.

best way i found was with a coat hanger ona manual hatchback.. just slip bend it straight with a loop on the end then hook the trunch release.. takes 5 minutes if you cant get turtles one to work.. just watch the paint if you try this way.

it is behind the paint but you can tear your rubber weather stripping

lubed the rod with a bit of silicone to get it in.. used to wedges of wood to.. no contact to the weather stripping but a coule white marks now exist behind it.
