Welcome to 2CarPros.

If the key isn't working either, the last thing you can try is what is called a slim jim. It is a device that slides between the window and weather stripping and is hooked at the end. The goal is to catch the linkage for the door lock so you can unlock it.

I don't know where you are located or if this type of tool is available to you. They are difficult to get in the US because of what they are for. Often times people call the local police to get them to do it.

Let me know if I can help in any way.

Take care,

Joe
