Hey guys started my omega today and it has locked itself so my keys are in the ignition with the doors locked I have the bonnet open so access to some fuses. It is a 1999 2.5 v6 any ideas how to get in? Please help. Cheers Andy

I think i would be looking at my car insurance windscreen cover.....and a rear quaterlight.

[Oh]

Maybe I missunderstood but opening my catera when I get locked out is a piece of cake. Just get a wire hangar straighten it out make a small loop on 1 end and slide it in towards the bottom of the drivers window. The lock on the cateras has ridges and is super simple to open. I've opened it in about 10-15 seconds a few times before.

Have you tried a folded strip of packing tape slipped through between the door and the seal?  You can slide it down and pull gently on one side to curve it towards the button, loop over then pull tight and upwards.

I know the button is slope sided but you may strike lucky.  Worth 20 minutes to save a quarterlight glass....

Or Cheese wire, or, about 6 strands of copper wire from mains cable tightly twisted together, get the wire over the button and work it back and forth horizontally untill it burns itself it the button before pulling it up.,

First priority is to stop the tinker running. Remove sporran and ram it up tailpipe. Then toss caber through winscreen and retrieve keys. Peice of piss

Im assuming after 3hrs, he has either got in, or run out of petrol

remembering i said the bonnet was open? I disconected the battery and suffocated it so not running now. Aa charge £256 for the rear quarterlite. Just gave up got a spare for other cars so not carless :-).

Fully agree, have done this a few times myself, on my own car......
