How? By prying the door open?

Yes , unfortunately.... I pryed the door open probably a total of a half inch- three quarters of an inch at the top of the door in between the front and rear door glass frames.

I wrapped the gooseneck end of a small stanley prybar with electrical tape so as not to scratch it...but I should have wrapped the coat hanger too cause there was some slight scratching on the door frame from the hanger , noticed afterward.

I worked at it off and on for three to four hours....my feet were freezing and my hands would cramp from grasping the thin hanger so I took some breaks.

I was a bit worried when prying that I might shatter the glass so I took it real slow... Wear safety Glasses and Like Diesel 911 says, keyword is "patience". Don't break the window with the prybar by letting it slip out of your hands...I had some close calls with cramping hand muscles.

Not much fun in the cold, at least it was under shelter...will be getting a spare key at the dealership as soon as possible so as not to have to repeat this fiasco'.

This car is not very easy to get into at all...I'd recomend to have spare keys for this car as was recomended for sure.

Since I know have a key to duplicate: can the dealership cut me a spare with proper title and i.d.? Or is the key still ordered from somewhere?

Thanks again.

Most dealerships dont cut any keys any more, they order one from the parts depot, by VIN # usually overnight. They are steel, as compared to brass that some locksmiths use, and not copies from your key.
