i know this sounds harsh (but it wont fuck the lock) use a small flat screw driver Very Happy

hehe, after about an hour of fiddling around in the little gap behind the back seat and the pertrol tank, and a wierd shaped bit of metal with a hook on the end, and a fkn torch, i got them out. saved myself $60. and as for trying other keys, tried a shitload but no go. was going to remove the checkerplate on my parcel shelf, but it's a bitch 2 get out.
