Keys locked inside car :(

I left my keys inside the car and it's locked. Does anyone know how I could get inside or possibly have a master key? PM me. TIA

Any Towing Company should be able to open the door for you.
I like Great America Tow if you are near SJ 408-988-4774

If you have AAA you can probably get it done free

2.5 hours, that's a no no. I don't have AAA anymore . Is 45 a fair price for locksmith?

Use a coat hanger if you're broke. Pull the window back at the top(be careful), stick the coat hanger inside the car and use it to unlock/open the door. It may take you some time...

prybar and hangars. never tried to open a subaru lock with my slimjim kit. tow truck drivers will use the same methods.

back when we used to lock a lot of keys in cars we called Hernandez locksmith a lot. they're pretty pro and charge about $40. no idea what they charge now and they're mobile.

AAA used to make them but ask the Hernandez guy when hes there. He can probably make it or refer you to someone who can.

I'm waiting now, I guess 45 bucks is a lesson for me to not be so careless haha. Keys are in ignition too, I'm not in such a good part of San Jose.
