I wish all you guys had been there, it would have ended up looking like the "pull the car out of the snow" video. :p

That was plan B.

I used the pliers to unscrew the antenna from my truck, pryed the top of the door frame on the car, slid the antenna in and hit the power door lock button.
Thank god she has a crappy designed/build quality GM product or instead of McGuyver you would be McStuck.

i remember once, my roomate and i were looking for apartments. and well his window was open like... maybe 2 inches.

so we get out of his car (a POS ford fiesta at the time) and he is all happy for some reason and starts dancing outside the car with the radio on. so im like... haha, nice. so he locks the door and shuts it , then continues to dance.

and im like... wait a minute, how is the radio still on ..


i ended up reaching my arm half way down the 2 inch crack of the window that was open witha pair of pliers that we borrowed from a handy man that was saw walking by and barely had the pliers on the manual door lock snic ehe didnt have power locks. and barely got it open. good thinkg i have skinny arms.

Any ideas how I did it?

No coat hanger, didnt bust the glass and didnt tear anything up. All we had at the location were a pair of pliers, and her car and my truck. How would you have done it?

You obviously used the pliers to unscrew the antenna from your truck, pryed the top of the door frame on the car, slid the antenna in and hit the power door lock button. Duh! ;) :p

Mcgyver would build your house out of a string and a piece of rope...both of which are the same thing!
