Exclamation Locked Keys in Car w/ Factory Alarm On.

Yea So, I'm at a Friends House Now and
I locked My Keys in My 1993 with the Factory Alarm On.

I got a Coat Hanger and I Tried to Unlock the Door
by the Inside Door Handle and Inside Lock but by My Surprise...

It Locked It SELF BACK !!!!

Its a Hidden Safety Feature I had No Idea About.

Also I tried Calling a Tow Service to Unlock the Door by "Wedge"
but the Air Cuff did Not Fit the Crease of the Door ... OMG.

I Cant Break In My Own Car.


Is there Anyway to Disable the Factory Alarm ???
From Under the Closed Hood with Alarm On ???

I Might End Up Spending the Night and Wait to Get a
"Third Key" made from the Lexus Dealer Tomorrow.

Is there Anyway to Disable the Factory Alarm ???
From Under the Closed Hood with Alarm On ???
Or Break In a Lexus LS400 without a Key.
(I'm Not using a Brick)

EDIT-
I Ended up Spending the Night.
I went to the Dealer in the Morning.
and Got a Replacement Key Made.


OK So Here is the Correct Pricing of Keys from VIN
at Lexus Dealership.

Its Listed at $50.00
I Paid $32.63 OUT THE DOOR at COST !!!

Print this Receipt to Hopefully Get a Discount on Your Next
Key Replacement, This Key Opens Door and Starts Car, Laser Cut.

Thank You to the Guys at CROWN LEXUS in Ontario.

I did this in my 92...this is what I did, it takes two people, a flat head and some sort of a long skinny but hard stick, I used an old hood latch holder-upper stick thingy... use that to press the unlock button, it unlocks the door and then try to open from the inside and as soon as the door opens a bit but not all the way and use the other person to open the door from the outside latch and the door should now be open although the alarm is still goin off like crazy. Took me about 30 minutes to figure out how to break into it.
