Default Please HELP! Asap!

ok, so my sis was taking her stuff out of my trunk and then she comes to me after and says that she cant close the trunk...(reason cause i have the gts blackout lights and its a bit hard to close)

so she leaves the keys in the trunk and asks if i can close it...so i do and i LEAVE the keys inside the trunk...i have no spare keys! and i have a convertible, so is there a way to get to the trunk w/out calling a locksmith?!?!?

if you can somehow crawl in through your convertible top, then i think you need to call a locksmith. you can get a spare key made at the dealer.

i jsut called a locksmith and he says that they charge an average of 180 dollars to drill a hole in the trunk lock....is there any alternatives? can it really be done the right way?

Sounds like you are SOL. I'm taking it you don't have an extra fob?
After this, you need to get yourself another key for emergencies, and if you are really into it, get a truck release button kit.

there is no button in the glove box like my 99 , or are you locked out of the car also? i locked my keys in my car and a key from another ford opend my trunk by playing around with it.infact that worked twice, one with a set of explorer keys and ford ranger keys.

The '05-'09 does not come stock with a trunk release button in the interior. Ford failed on that one. Apparently Ford likes us coupe owners to crawl through the backseat instead

So you have the old fob and it just doesn't work?
Not sure if I misunderstood the statement, but have you tried changing the battery on the old fob?
