hey everyone, i recently bought a 96 GS-T. Only problem is that dude didnt give me a key, title. NOHING!. I only paid 200 bucks. But guy showed me proof that the car is his..Reason for not giving me anything is because he was in a hurry to catch a flight to where ever he was moving to.....


I honestly dont want to break a window or even try going to the dealership and asking for the key and telling them my story.

Any ideas of how i can open the car ?
 
I'm sure you can use a coat hanger of some sort. Google it up, there's gotta be sites that teach you how to jack cars. How do you plan on driving it away? Hotwire?
 
Wow! How come I didn't know about this? Yo fill me in man, hit me up on AIM. By the way a wire coat hanger works best. Just make a hook shape at one end and bend it accodingly while reaching for the door handle. I had to do a few times when I locked my key in my ccar.
 
Use a plastic putty knife on the back edge of the window glass to pry it away from the body, and reach in with a piece of broomstick with a screw in its side to either push the lock button, or to pull the lock lever to unlock.
Try a filed key to work the ignition. Be careful- carrying such a key is probably a misdemeanor.
 
The 2g doors have no metal surrounding the top of the window. Just pop it away from the body a little bit, and stick a nice thick book in there. Then pull a little more and stick another one. You can pull the window away from the body almost 4" (dont need to anymore). My arm can fit in a 4" gap and lower the window.

If you have fat arms, just get a stick and work the window down if its a manual style. DO NOT TRY to pull the lever to open the door. I used a broomstick and tried to get enough leverage to act like someone was opening the door from inside, then the plastic handle snapped and it was a pain in the ass to get out of the car everyday.

As far as driving it, im not going to because obviously i dont have a key, unless i go to the dealer i tell them my situation and they give me a key, which i highly fcuking doubt...LOL...i went to get a key for my own car. I took DL, and registration of the car. Guy from the parts service totally questioned my picture of my license. He was pretty much a dcik...LOL
