An interesting day with Geoff!

Big thanks to Geoff and dave today, got the lower arms replaced,however during the process my keyless entry decided to play up locking my keys on the passenger seat!
Call to green flag and an hour later a man came out with a very neat entry system comprising of plastic wedges and inflatable solution that levered the door just enough for him to slip a rod into the car and lift the passenger door handle!







To make matters more interesting, the 4 wheel alignment machine packed up for a couple of hours!!.
Still all worked out in the end and also decided to treat myself to a set of duratracs Thumbs Up






Good banter as always and a job well done, many thanks guys Thumbs Up

Mate of mine is a locksmith and he's done a fair few cars with keys locked in. Has about half a dozen different size inflatable things, no damage at all, but they put an amazing amount of pressure in from a really thin start. Fantastic things. Thumbs Up

Its called Big Easy car unlocking kit and is designed to gain entry into cars without damaging them, alternativley we have lock rippers for double glazed house doors, big red hammer if you are not bothered about damage and halligan bars for extra support. However the priority with cars and kids locked in them is to get them out without sustaining damage to the car hence the issue of the Big Easy kit
