Re: [MBZ] Newfangled electronic key fob thingie
When I was in high school dad gave me his old '84 Ford Tempo. The trunk lock busted off its mount (inside so it would just spin, big fun) so we pulled it out and opened the trunk with a big screwdriver. There was a technique to finding the latch from outside and once I figured it out I got pretty good at it. I never kept much in the car so it didn't really matter.People would try all manner of things to get into that trunk but to my knowledge nobody ever managed it. The trick was that dad had ground his screwdriver a little narrow. Most screwdrivers that were long enough were too fat to fit the hole... -Curt From: Curly McLain via Mercedes To: Mercedes Discussion List Cc: Curly McLain <126die...@gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 22, 2015 11:46 PM Subject: Re: [MBZ] Newfangled electronic key fob thingie >Wifey wants to change the battery but can't figure out how to get it >open.
