RE: Lost Keys for my stang need to break in
I had no luck with a coat hanger trying to hit the unlock button in mine and also no luck with pulling on the inside handle with a coat hanger when I locked my keys (to both my cars and my house) in the Mustang with it running a few weeks ago.

The other day while I was at work some guy with a lx locked his keys in it right in front of the store. I went and got my round key, stuck it in and unlocked it. So maybe if you know someone else with a fox body it might be worth a try,

I have a for sure way to get in. Your lock cylinders are held inwith a little clip that has one rivit holding it in place. Go to your hatch just below you key(under you hatch ubove the plate), drill the rivit out, and pry the clip straight down. After that, take you lock cylinder out and use a screwdriver to pop you hatch open. crazy easy.

I saw on a dateline type of show once where they had a theif show that he could get into a sn95 style mustang quicker then the guy with the key could. It was pretty scary, he would take a coat hanger bent into a U and get it behing the window, right beside the lock rod and then pull it up. I'll never forget it as we had a shiney new 94 in the garage....
