Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] locked keys in boot
I'm assuming then main doors are locked still then?
Does the interior boot release handle still work, and do you have breakdown cover; AA / RAC or similar.
They should be able to 'affect entry' if you call them out, allowing you to open the boot from inside the car.

hhmmm, the MR2 doesnt "Dead lock" does it? try and carfully wedge the window open a little with something like a door stop wedge and with something long, thin, bendable and strong (eg copper brake line tubing) try and unlock the car or even try and pull the boot release with it (but Im guessing the boot will lock with the car)

If you got a thin bit of something and slid it down the drivers window you could probably push the door unlock button.

Thats how i done it, was quite easy tbh just be carfull to not mark the rubber too much with the wedge... oh and get a long thin wire with a hook on the end and just slide it in and try and tug the boot release its the easiest latch to get onto

cheers for the tips guys but the release catch for the boot inside the car does not work the only way round it i think is to drill the lock and buy new lock barrel and keys? anybody know where i can get one from tried all the scrap yards cant get one for love or money.
Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] locked keys in boot

try and reach the inside door lock / open bit first before you drill it, if you can flick the door lock bit to open you will be able to open the door
