Your best bet is to call a locksmith. However, there are a couple ways to get into it. First, of course is to jerry-rig up a device that is similar to what a locksmith would use. But I'm here to tell you, it isn't easy. I did the same thing with my '89 SC when I had it...and I was 750 miles from home when I did it! Even though I called a locksmith, he still took over 30 minutes to get into it because it was that difficult.

There is another option, but It requires just a tad of power from the battery. If it's dead, dead, then you've got really no too many other options than calling a locksmith.
