Pleez Help!

If anyone knows how to unlock a rx8's trunk or anything like that pleez help.

I locked my keys in the damn trunk! long story... but here's a quick version. my spare keys are in the car... we have parties here and i can not afford some one finding my spare and stealing my car so i keep them in the glove box (never thought i would do this!). earlier today i put my keys in the trunk thinking they were my girlfriend's and shut the door... the car was locked. oops!!! wrong set of keys in my pocket (the rx8 and mitsubishi keys look alike!!!!).

So i just need to get in the car... can anyone help?

My parents do have the valet key... so they can overnight it to me. but its my damn b-day... my 21st for that matter. my apt keys and all were on the damn thing!

Do you have AAA?


If you have a local mazda dealer, they can cut a key from your VIN. No code, just a valet key . .but it would work

Get a locksmith to get the door open and pop the truck.

Mmm if you use the door weakness breakin method you will likely not be happy about the dent it puts in your door.

If you have your registration number you should be able to take a cab to your Mazda dealership and get them to give you another key... for a price

I'll try and find the door handle method for you...

So any punk who busts your window to steal your radio/CDs/iPod/GPS/whatever will find them in the glovebox (they ALWAYS bust open the glove box, it's where everyone stupidly keeps their valuables...) and will be able to drive away with the car.

mendossa... ya now i remember why i never visit this site. In AZ car theft is a everyday thing. if they get in the car at all it would be gone. i've been down here for almost three years and i have two friends in that time who woke up and their cars were gone.
either way don’t be a douche. thanks to everyone else though! I just called AAA... I really hope this does not damage the door or car!

LOL I like the tenis ball method.

Or if you have your Registration and ID you could go to the dealership and get them to make you another key.

Don't you dare ask "how are you going to get to the dealer"

Hey thanks for the help guys... AAA was able to unlock the door and the button (By the hood lever) did not disable so i was able to pop the trunk.

YAY so now im going to go do what ASU students do best when they turn 21, study!
