Locked Keys in Car

So im at school from now until 2 pm, gotta be at work at 4, gotta leave by 3 to get there. I just realised i locked my keys in my car. My sunroof is open just a little bit, can barely get my fingers in there. I dont have a spare anywhere close(bout 45 minutes away at my old home). Anyone have any ideas? Im trying to find a coathanger cause that usually works.

do you have a power hatch release? if so, get a couple coat hangers, tie them together and fish it through the sunroof and try to press the button to get in the hatch. i'v had to do that before. it requires much patience. i now always keep a spare in my wallet.
