Re: No keys, any ways to get in?

I'm assuming time is not of the essence here, here's some suggestions. I've picked open a number of these before, they are only 5-wafer wafer-tumbler locks. Basically means you just turn the lock core in the direction you want it to open, then just have to get the wafers set. A few different ways to do that:

- Tension wrench and wave rake
- Tension wrench and standard pick
- Tension wrench and snap gun (what RH suggested)
- Bump key
- What Dave said will work for the trunk just fine, but you'll need to make a key from the trunk core to open the glovebox.

Make sure to shoot the core with a good amount of spray oil (not WD40) before you start. Contrary to popular belief, new locks are often easier to open, because they are well lubricated with no mechanical wear yet.

You can find tutorials on this stuff on YT and buy basic-quality lockpicks on Amazon. Does take a bit of practice tho.
