Good luck.
There must be a cable you can yank on somewhere - provided you have double-jointed elbows and long gorilla arms to reach.![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
We tried to open a mates mk5 escort bonnet with no way in. Ended up braking the front grill and using sockets to undo the actual lock plate.

there is a lock in the bonnet, you need the key to pop it once, and the key turned the other way to pop it the second time

i'm going to find a coat hanger or something because i know i can pop the grille, just going to be a cunt forking out Ł40 odd for a new lock![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)

What about AA or RAC, they can usally get the keys out when you lock them inside, not sure about under the bonnet though, sure you would give them a good laugh at the call centre. ![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
Or how about a new basic key cut from the chassis number, got to be cheaper than a lock or grille.

i locked my keys in the boot when i was 19 yr old, and since then i have had a strict policy of NEVER putting my keys down in the boot or whilst under the bonnet ever again! trouser pockets are for keys!
good job i learnt at a young age, unlike dojj

I am very cautious where I put keys when working on a car. The window is always down if they need to be left in the ignition and I never put them in the boot or under bonnet. Would rather have an uncomfortable buldge in me trousers![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
Can't you jack the car up and get someone to stick there hand up the engine bay?? or ring the vehicles manifacturers for options?? Try RAC or the AA?
