If you are locked out you will need to get someone who knows how to
use a "slim Jim" to release the lock. Locksmiths, tow-truck people,
and some police might be able to help.
Once you're in you should remove the passenger side outside door
handle and read the key code off of it. Take the handle to a real
locksmith and they can make you a key from the code. Write the code
down somewhere safe. Perhaps even record it in a computer file.
