Re: Locked myself out

I locked the keys in the trunk when I first got my Viper. Same key also for ignition. Called a locksmith at 10pm and had visions of him cutting the lock out to get the trunk open and then I would have to replace the lock. He arrived in a van with a computer and just pulled out a couple of wires and put them in the trunk lock and made a key on the computer. I figured that at this time of night it would probably cost me a couple hundred dollars to get the trunk open and then I would have to buy a new trunk lock and install it. He said the computer system works on almost any type of lock including door locks. He charged me $90.00 and told me to turn it into my insurance company. I didn't think the insurance company would pay for my own stupidity but they did. Since I did this stupid thing I did find out another way to open the trunk without the key but not going to give out that information here for obvious reasons. If you want that information send me an e-mail.
