call a locksmith!!! but !!! here is a tip to save some cash!

after the locksmith arrives find out if he is working for the company or an independant locksmith. If he works for a BOSS or a lock picking company tell him " HEY <name> I will cancell this call and give you $<amount of money way lower than they charge> if you open my door". Basically you will be paying the "aprentice" locksmith to open your door under the table. This is a WIN / WIN situation for both of you. He makes extra cash on side and you save allot of money. Done it 2x now it works great. I make sure to call a big locksmithing company dow, so they always send a lower rank employee willing to make an extra buck.

I used a long thin piece of wire to slide into the window and press the unlock button. Alarm went off, but no biggie.

That's a really good idea. I think the guy that I have on the way is independant.

do you have your VIN number on your insurance card in your wallet?

Call your local dealer, have them cut a key, does not have to be programmed...

then you can open your door
