I just had to do something like that today.

I locked the keys inside and searched YouTube for ways to get them out. Many videos of the inflatable pads. I decided to simulate that by cutting some pieces of cardboard, stick two in and then slide more in between them. I did that towards the top corner and also side corner.

Then I was able to fairly easily get a coat hanger in above the cardboard wedge stuck in the side. I bent a hook on the end of the wire that was surprisingly easy to pull the door lock lever. The entire thing took only a few minutes.


Another option if your car is older and doesn't have expensive RFID keys is to take your title and ID to a dealer that sells the same brand and they'll cut a new key for $15-$20. They just look at your VIN number and can look up what key to cut.
