My husband and father-in-law ran a roadside assistance service, including lockouts. The bag is by far the most common way they got into cars, worked on pretty much everything except a Mercedes G-Wagon (the doors are too strong to wedge out). Most modern cars have shielding to prevent the use of a slim jim. And the coat-hanger looking thing can be very effective for lever lock style doors.

My then girlfriend and I were out driving and it started to rain... the water started leaking in through the top of the passenger door.

The trick to the Slim Jim is knowing where and what angle to put it. I've only done a few, all my own cars... Because I am REALLY bad about leaving keys in my car. Older cars are easier. Some newer cars have shields to block you also. The kits usually come with a guide to show you tips. Also, I've seen a lot of lock outs working downtown. An inexperienced slim Jim user can do some damage. Don't get too rough or you'll be taking the door apart to replace plastic pieces.

Without a fancy slim jjm a hanger will do the job just fine.

[@RonParker]

Both times I've used a slim jim were on older Fords (my own 88 Tempo and a friend's 98? Ranger) and they both required me to push something down rather than pull something up. My first time looked a lot like the video here - I could make it wiggle, but I couldn't make it unlock. Until I accidentally pushed the rod down while trying to start over and it just popped open. I think I invented some new cursewords at that point. Both times were also in busy parking lots in broad daylight, and everyone just completely ignored the weirdo with the slim jim.

[@tier7543]

You gotta keep tension on the lock while picking it. That's why all the pins/wafers kept clicking back. So the entire time you're using the pick you gotta be trying to lightly turn it. By slightly turning the lock the pins/wafers get stuck up 1 by 1 until it's open.

@@KNR90 To the best of my knowledge, cars with mechanical keyholes are meant to always be openable using a physical key (or a good lockpicking tool), mostly for emergency situations.

[@TheClownfight]

I've found some interesting anti theft on my truck (2018 Ram). If the truck was locked and my window down...

The door opened right up, and the panic alarm went off. My truck does not have an alarm package upgrade or anything. So the alarm/panic function goes nuts.

@@DaveDefrane602 If it's a round stick-type there's usually a flare at the top. Once you get the string around the shaft and tighten it you can tug the lock up. If it's a rectangle shape there is no lip so you would need a different approach, but a shoelace might still work if more complicated and frustrating. Loop it over the rectangle part and pull firmly toward the rear of the vehicle and ease it up - and fail multiple times before success. Coat hangers are just too flimsy to work any modern flip-locks without an excess of skill and/or fumbling. Some vehicles will open with a pull on the door handle but many will not. And no one is going to do squat to a modern toyota/lexus with a basic theft deterrent system using a coat hangar... those are the most annoying cars to perform a lockout service on.

Security by obfuscation is not security. The only way locks will get better is through necessity (widespread knowledge) or force (regulation).

2021 AUDI A5 SUV with no actual manual locks, no unlock button, and would not open with a pull on the door handle... Or the 2022 Chev Camaro with the same setup.

@@Russianderpvideos I might've gotten the particular audi model, it was an SUV at any rate. Both it, and the Camaro, and many many other vehicles disable the unlock buttons when they detect the door has been gapped. Pulling the door handle from inside does nothing and, with the camaro, there is no way to safely pull the door handle without putting a dangerous amount of stress on the glass. They also lack manual door locks that can be accessed.

Security through obscurity is a bullshit excuse. If anything it is going to force the industry to stop being lazy and actually improve their products. It also shows (and educates) owners what it takes to steal a car so they can be cognizant of what can and should be done to keep their cars and possessions safe This is the same bs that violent video games and movies make people violent. You are essentially saying that the 1.6million people who watched this are going to go out and steal a car now. Thats a lot of new car thieves...

Just in the off chance that my remote gets really mangled (I work security), and my wife accidentally loses the other one (or it gets stolen). You never know, this has saved my bacon with my previous car (which my parents now own) after I accidentally managed to snap the circuit board in my remote. My wife had the other one with her and she was out of town (forgot to take it out of her bag).

Another lockout tool if you have the tab on top of the door panel is a silly strip. Thin long piece of plastic folded in half with grip tape in the crease. It's the fastest and cheapest one. A long bar a wedge and a silly strip were all I ever took on car door lockout runs. Lexus' were notoriously hard because they re-locked the doors automatically and you had to time the door pull and unlock one handed.

Pro tip #2- when using the large Inside tool, when coming up on the inside, remove the Wedge giving more room and less tension . When you said you don't know if you can get it to pop over on the inside to get the door handle, it's because the Wedge was putting so much tension on the window👍

The u-shaped wire is to be used like the slim jim where there is shielding on the outside of the window. Never meant to actually go inside the cab with it. I witnessed a locksmith use one many years ago and he was in the car in about a minute.
