My old man has shut the boot with the keys inside.

The button on the dash isn't opening the boot nor is the button near the number plate lights.

There is a spare but it's in a different place that requires entrusting Royal mail with the only spare so any emergency opening ideas? Thanks

Car is a 2000 Red label

I bought mine salvage, someone must have done the same thing because they took a sawzall to the spare wheel well and cut a big hole thorugh it. If you decide to do the same. I'll buy the piece from you :-)

There is no solution that will be cheaper than using the other key.

Bit late, but there’s a switch in the glovebox that disables the dash boot switch and the button by the number plate lights.

Check it’s switched on.
