Dear Geoff:

Would you be so kind as to forward it to me as well? I think my spam filters have been intercepting Russc's sends.

My e-mail is blahblahblah@blahblahblah.com.

Sincerely,

Algirdas

Done. It might be an idea to edit out your e-mail address now Algirdas or the spam farmers might grab it.


Russ, copy also sent to Ailwyn.

Russ,

I also forwarded a copy to Gary last night. Apparently, he's after tips for when he locks his garage keys in the garage as well.

More than few times that this happened with my previous car. But I can just hacked in and managed to get the trunk opened.

On my Elan, I don't think so and it possibly will happen soon -- after a long day at work normally :)

PM me the information PLEASE --> Thank you very much.

Not a cry for help but a solution - locked keys in boot

Postby petestubbs » Sat 23.09.2006, 11:56

That is the sort of thing that would be so handy to know - just in case!

However, I am brand new here, I only bought my Elan 3 weeks ago and joined you last night.

Therefore i respect your decision that I dont get to know the tricks, and also respect your common sense decision not to post it to just anyone, for very obvious and valid reasons, however, I am intrigued at this solution, and so, if it is okay with you, I'll re-contact you after I have been here a while.

Hope thats okay.

Best regards, Pete

This solution is not possible with my S2 as the access you need ain't gonna happen.

Maybe this is a solution that only applies to SEs?
