i just locked my keys in my trunk when i was grabbing something out of it. i dont wanna call a wrecker company just to get my keys out.

what do i do?

i do have a buddy of mine who is here and i can use his car, but where would i go. i dont wanna scratch up my car by trying to pry it open with a pry bar, what are my options?

If you have the push buttons to lock/unlock the car, just fish a wire coat hanger between the window and the seal and try pushing the unlock button.

 
Brother, you have a problem. If you are going to try to open it yourself then my advice is to call the Police Department and explain that you are a black man who is going to be breaking into a car but it's your car.

We don't want another Rodney King type incident.

 
Do you have full coverage insurance? Your insurance company should reimburse you if you have to call a towing service to get your keys out. If you're worried about the expense. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

if you can flag down an officer some of them carry slim jim like items with them. would come out free instead of having to call a tow truck..

though, check your insurance to see if you have any type of road side assistance that could provide you lock out service. if you don't i would get the service added to your insurance.

mine cost me 15 bucks extra to my account. i can get gas, fixed flat, lockout 3 times, and free towing for 100 miles.
