How to break in to an FC?

I locked my keys in my car last night and i need to break in. I'm down visiting friends so my spare is a couple hours away.

Can anyone explain how to break in? I have limited tools here and i need to get in asap.

Snap into a Slim Jim!

Seriously, do a search for slim jim, there was a thread not too long ago about how easy the FC was to break in to. Tons of tips for breaking and entering!

I really hope once this issue is resolved, Mods would delete this thread. I mean, just look at the title. Well, if someone is out there with the intent to steal, (s)he will steal. But then again, this info might lead the oppurtunist car theif to steal and lets not let that happen.

Just call the cops, well...... unless you have something visible they might find illegal........

They will come out with a slim jim, open the door, read your registratio (so they know its your car) and be on their way.

Alot of cops dont do that **** anymore. I know the cops around here wont. Something about they stopped training them on it years ago. You might get lucky or you might have to call a tow company most of them guys can get it.

My old T2 opened with a flathead screwdriver. Sad.


You could always try a locksmith instead of wasting the time of the cops (who will most likely tell you to call a locksmith anyway)

Alot of police dept. policies will NOT allow them to "break into" people's cars anymore. All they can do is tell you to call a locksmiths that'll use a slimjim, get in your car in 5 seconds and charge you 35 bucks.
AAA is probably one of the best automotive investments you can make.

break the glass

Seriously, get the title or the reg if it's outside the car and go down to the Mazda dealer.  They can cut you a key with just the VIN as a reference.

Heh, if you know anything about older style cars you already know that it is pretty easy to get into one. It is not like this is some kind of secret knowledge, geez.

I had someone scan my title and email it to me, took it down to the mazda dealer and they made me a key. Cost me $15 and worked perfectly.

BTW, i called the cops and they said they don't do that. Basically go **** yourself.
