Well I always used to carry a spare key with my last car. I'm getting one made today so this crap doesn't happen again.

For the door,
There is a scew behind the joystick thing for the mirrors, pry the plastic piece off from the side with the little light on it.
Then there is a torx screw behind the handle. You can get to it by prying off that little plastic piece behind the handle.
Then theres the two screws behind the long light. You actually don't need to take the lense off. Just put a screw driver on the left side of it and pry it out.
And lastly there are the screws closer to the hinge of the door.
After that just carefully pull the cover from the door.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who carries a spare key in their wallet, alot of people I've told that to just look at me like I'm stupid and tell me it'* a dumb idea


FYI for future referance, sometimes you can fashion a strong enough wire coat hanger into a make shift slim jim, I've done it before. No need to pry your door at the corner and try to hit the unlock button.

Sounds like me when the wife and I go out wheeling in the Jeep, last thing I want to do is lose my keys in a stream and not have a spare.

Thanks for answering my question. My brother tried to help by starting to just pull the panel away from the door. I said "STOP!!" I told him it'* not that simple Hopefully tomorrow it won't be raining again and I can fix it. I just picked up a door panel trim popper tool today.

It'* crazy how easy it is to break into a car, at least this one and other'* like it. I now have to figure out why my alarm didn't go off... :? (thread in electrical)

Don't forget all the plastic fasteners around the edges. You'll want get a body-panel removal tool for those. They have them at any parts store.
