It’s really bad when your car’s lock is damaged or when you’ve accidently shut the door of your car before taking the car keys out of the ignition. Instead of wasting your precious time by trying to break into your own car or waiting for the locksmith to come and help you in unlocking the car’s lock, you could also help yourself out first by unlocking it on your own. Make sure that you unlock it properly so that your car won’t be damaged. In cases such as this, it really helps if you could get yourself a ‘slim jim’ or another long and flat piece of metal. Follow the simple tips below to unlock your car:
1. Insert the long and flat piece of metal or the ‘slim jim’ gently into the area where the window is near to the weatherstripping. Do it with extra care as it’s very easy to cause damages to the weatherstripping.
