I recommend against pulling the glass out to unlock the car, it's hard on the internal door parts and you can damage the track and the fiberglass mounting points by doing so. Some people do it without causing any damage, I know that, but many people damage their door and/or window track as well. I have even seen someone knock a huge chunk out of the top of the door that way.
can happen but never to me, but ive done it quite a few times on my own car. yea if you get too rough with it then youll prob wear something down and over time it could break, as far as it breaking on u r first try, i doubt it. id rather do that than pay $60+ for a locksmith.

I've seen many first time breaks. When I was a locksmith we charged $30, lols. A dealer will make a key for $10-$15.

A $60 locksmith is a ripoff
