2000 Imp=no Onstar my guess

 

locksmith, a company close to here called autorescue uses the wedge to get into locked cars, maybe look up online/auto section of yellow pages for such a company, or a tow truck company might do that as well.

Newer cars are hell to retreive keys from..

 

A friend of mine had a new Clio and had to break the window lol.. Can pick up replacement windows from scrappies pretty cheap.. but you cant do that if you need to leave it at work =/

that crossed my mind in a pissed moment. but i cant do that to my baby. guess i'll just wait until tomorrow and have someone take me to get a wedge...but i still need something long to hit the switch with. DAMNIT :mad . my hangers arent long enought. just tried. thought i was in a eureka moment. i used a pair of pliers to pry open the gap where they put the wedge but i fell short. plus the hanger bends when you slide it in and starts heading towards the center of the car.

yeah i know about that. the cuff is same as one of the pump wedges isnt it? or something similiar? i dont have either anyway. nor did i have a long enough rod...wait, maybe my rod on the blinds is long enough. either or, i still gotta wegde it open.

I think you'll find the top arch of the door is most vulnerable btw..

yeah i know. its kinda weird to me that i cant find a doorstop in the stores near my home...bi-lo, food lion, dollar general, family dollar...what gives? lol wal-mart is sure fire tho. i'll let you guys know what i ended up doing tomorrow night.
