Keys keys!

Chalk this up to the stupid category! I think I locked my key under the seat! What are my options for getting it open to get the key, you ingenious people......

I usually stick a pry bar under the back and GENTLY lift the seat just enough to slide a powerful magnetic pickup tool in there. It works about 90% of the time!

Re: Keys keys!
