Slim Jims
Slim Jims In my circle of friends I'm known as that "go-to guy" for car-stuff. Oil changes, brake pads, "My car won't start!", you name it.
Apparently, my friends are slightly retarded. I get a call probably once a month about someone locking their keys in their car. In the past we've used everything fron hangars, socket extensions (window was partially rolled down), and pretty much whatever else we could find.
That being said, I'd like to have a reliable kit to deal with this problem.
Any reccomendations?

Found this kit that I'll likely pick up...

thats the kit i prefer. I used to work at a car wash and people always forget their alarm locks their doors so I got pretty good at it. The air bladder makes it so much easier than trying to cram folded paper in the door to open it up.
Glad I found some people with some experience... I found one on another site for $54, I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth it.
I know it's definitely a handy thing to have. Maybe in a couple weeks after I free up some extra cash.

I have one of those lockout tools (long flat blade), I'm pretty sure you can buy it at auto parts stores. It works good, it does help to know how the inside of the doors work.
