HELP, EMERGENCY!! Locked out of car :(

Post by N9THX »

I've been a bit of an idiot and closed my boot/trunk with my keys in.

The alarm has auto armed #-o

Is there a way to activate the boot opening mechanism from under the car somewhere?

I know I can reach the engine cover mechanism if I jack the car up but don't know if that'll be any help?

The eaiest way into the boot is to open the door and lift the boot lever.

Thats the way to open it in around 10 seconds

The method I used was on a tbar, not sure if it's work on a tin top.
Also the vehicle was still alarming and immobilised for the 10 secs, just scary how easy it is to gain access to the contents.
