Its a 98' GS

Dude, FEELIN for ya.

Dont bother poking into the cabin trying to hit the door lock switch, it wont work.

Few options here:
1. call a tow company to Slim Jim the door. (75.00 depending on who you call)
2. try to manually unlock and open the doors via coat hanger or similar.(pain in the ****, but free and dueable)
3.bust out the small window in the rear door to gain access to cabin. (window costs 85.00 installed)
4.call the stealer to get pocked in the butt for a new set.

i personaly went through this not too long ago and went for option 3, i was under some time restraints or would have done option 1.
Good luck Bro.

would i be able to get in through the trunk like where the armrest thing comes down?? The keys are right there on the seat. Also i don't have any time restraints.

I dont think you can get through that rear armrest area, unless you rip into the backing. I would just have a tow company come and slim jim it for you.

Yeah, if you got the time just call a tow truck. We all do dumb things and shyt happens.
Bite the bullet, pay the dues and lesson learned.

Hustler,

How much did you pay for your car? Do you pride yourself on your vehicle's appearance? Do you want your window scratched up? Do you want the linkage disconnected? Do you take your vehicle to Wal-Mart for an oil change?

DO NOT CALL A TOW TRUCK! Call an Automotive Locksmith that has experience opening Lexus and other high security vehicles. Do not trust your vehicle to someone with a slim jim!

Call a professional! It may be a little bit more money but this is your baby you are talking about!

Take care,

Tami

Damn Tami where did you come from ..great info

man that sux, sorry to hear that. get some guys say from aaa or so. they can just jam something on the car, that will create a gap. and then they can slip a stick it in and push on the power lock button

ok i take offense to this statement cause all "tow truck drivers" are not illerate some actually know what there doing i have been in the indudustry for a while now and take it from me I'am a Licensed Florida Recovery Agent I CAN OPEN ANY VECHICLE !!!! some of us have the training and the know how !!! and the days of the "slim jim " are over also it may be a good idea to call a locksmith cause they can get the key codes and make you another key

You are right. Not all tow truck drivers will show up with a slim jim. It just isn't a good idea to open up the phone book and call the first tow facility you can find and have them come out. It is the same thing with a locksmith. That is why I said call an automotive locksmith with experience opening high security vehicles.

I've seen damage to vehicles done by both towies and locksmiths. It is best to be an informed consumer, ask questions and make sure you hire a professional whether it is a locksmith or tow truck driver.

Take care,

Tami

While some of you might call me crazy, but i took matters into my own hand. I'm too afraid of a tow truck company with a joker working trying to get into my car. Or the unexperience policeman going up and down wildly with his slim jim, being from Newark I knew more than him.

So, since the trunk was still open, I took down the black back carpet, and made a small incision into the leather where to armrest goes up in the back seat. Got my friend with small hands,and got my key. I will just cover the whole place where the back armrest go up with suede, its not like i ever take it down anyway, nor is there anyone ever in my back seats. Now, no damage to the exterior of my car. And i could just do the suede thing myself.

thanks for all the suggestions CL.

glad to hear

Glad you found a solution. I guess you didn't you have a spare master key somewhere?

Maybe It Is Time To Order A New SPARE Key From Lexus! :d

yes thanks for clearing that up the best bet would be to cal AAA and they would send out there locksmith
