It took me longer to find the painters tape than open this truck. Thanks a TON!
Perfect! After watching the video I was able to unlock a Yukon 2008 within 10 seconds! Using a hanger by bending it to get the shape of the slim jim
Amazing explanation. After an hour of trying I looked up the your video and within 30 seconds of inserting it I popped it. Life saver.
I did not have a slim jim handy but thanks to your video, I was able to rig up a piece over silver solder & get the keys out of my truck. Awesome video
It’s 3-13-24 at 11:15 at night locked my keys in my truck. Luckily I had a the exact slim Jim bent it to your measurements and bam got it open on my second try. Video was real easy to follow. Thanks a lot!
It helped me a lot, I'm 40 miles from home and 25mi from any business, I copied the shape on a 1"x24" 2mm thick truss with a 4 ½" grinder and it worked for me. Now it doesn't close with the control but I can go where to repair it... thank you very much!
Thank you so much, this video really pulled through for me✊ called my dad to try to ask him and his only advice was don’t scratch the paint on his car😑 so this was such a big help especially the panel that comes off and the bend of the slim Jim was perfect!
Thank you! The secret was in the bend.
Got it opened up in about 2 minutes.
Dude...thank you! My key fob battery died while I was at work today and I leave the actual key in the truck for convenience. Took 30 seconds to unlock after watching the video.👍
I made a tool because I couldn't find my Slim Jim. I couldn't get it to unlock it just kept getting caught. Tried it today after modifying my tool. Had to cut a little off the bottom because it must not have been dropping enough to catch the hole slot. Took me 1 try and 15 seconds and I had it unlocked. Now the bad news. I was so excited I open the door to get my keys and the tool slid to the left and fell inside the door. I am surprised that happened because in the video you drop yours so you could use both hands and yours stoppped on the other side. NO PROBLEM. Just glad it is unlocked. The POS dealer wanted $104.00 just to cut a key from the vin. That was without programming. Guess that would have been another $300 . Thanks Donny.
Thank you.helped me a lot bought slim Jim for 15.00.locksmith wanted to charge me 150.00.good video 👍👍👍
This worked great! Locked my keys in my 2008 denali today, was about to wedge the door, break thru the door seals with a coat hanger, just do all kinds of unwanted damage, happened onto this video while trying to figure it out, went to hardware store, bent the slim jim as indicated, and with one min, door open, alarm sounding, etc... thank you so much, 10 thumbs up!!!
Cool!
^^^^^^
You just saved me 75 dollars! I can't thank you enough for posting this video. Thank you so very much!!!
This is a great video and I thank you so much for making it, but I wanted to add this in the case someone else is as dense as I was and made the same mistake.
Make sure the bend that the tech so excellently showed you how to make for the Silverado is facing you when you first put it in the window slot. I worked at it for a lot of time, about an hour, in very cold temperatures to no avail. Finally I hiked back to my home and watched more carefully and saw my mistake of the bend pointing to me instead of the truck. Once I hiked back to the truck, no problem, The Silverado rides again! Thank You once again for an informative well shop video solving a problem that can cost you plenty if you do not do it yourself.
Thank you I literally just did exactly what you’ve done and purchased the same exact tool. I’m in Bakersville California. It is 98° dry heat.
I know that this message is going to get buried in between the comments. However I want to personally thank you because I have the exact same truck and I locked my self out in target about an hour ago. I got a similar part in a small shop and I got the situation resolved. Sincerely thanks again for this step by step video.
Most welcome!
Thanks for the video January 10,2021 after watching your video I open my 2007 Chevy Tahoe in less than 1 minute. The bend on the end of the slim Jim is the ticket. Thanks again
good lookin, after 6 minutes i've gotten into 7 silverados and one tahoe! chase dat paper!
So I was trying to slim Jim my moms equinox just now, and there weren’t any yt vids showing someone slim Jim an Chevy equinox so I’m like maybe a Chevy pick up is similar? Saw that you put it right against the pillar and unlocked my moms car instantly thanks man
This worked amazinggggg! Your measurements helped me make one out of an old metal ruler cause I couldn’t find a slim Jim online. Took me 10 seconds to open the door, took 5 min to make the tool
I’ve never left a comment on anything but this saved my hind end in less than 30 seconds once I got a slim Jim. Can not thank you enough! I had been messing with this for 4+ hrs. The details of you video were so perfect I didn’t even know I unlocked it until my buddy poont d out the latch was up!
Appreciate the complement. Thanks
Man your video just helped me out big time today. I have the same model truck and locked the keys in it. Went to autozone real quick for a $20 jimmy and in less than a minute I unlocked the truck
Today 3/7/2013 you saved my a** I walk to a construction zone and got a steel strap cut a half triangle and your video made it so easy it took me a couple of minutes to latch and pull the lock thank you very much my dude good bless you
That's great news. 👍
Thanks so much. Took a couple of tries with the small slim Jim but after bending it , it worked like a charm!!! Thanks man! 👍
Awsome
Its a brave man who puts up a tutorial on how to unlock his own vehicle without the key! Appreciate ya , mine (thats in the driveway running right now)🤨 is a little older though and the pull is up by the interior handle. I going to give it a shot though. Thanks!
Good luck!
My first time ever using one I got it open in less then a minute from watching this video. 💪🏾
Yup worked. Locked out of my 08 chevy.
Getting 🍿🍿🍿 ready!
This is a great video for thieves who like to constantly break in my car.. Thanks for showing him how how to do it.
Your welcome
My wife locked her keys in the tahoe at dollar general. Thanks to you I had it unlocked within 10 minutes.
Very comprehensive and well done tutorial!(Extra kudos for taking the panel off and showing how the slim jim grabs the linkage)I have a lot of respect for folks who still open cars using in the door tools(As opposed to being lazy and using a long reach tool for everything)
Being lazy? Buddy. Do whatever you gotta do to get back into your car and get rolling. Getting back in your car isn't "lazy"... wtf lol
@@polishpat95 My comment was said in reference to professionals (e.g. locksmiths, roadside assistance providers.)
Thank you bro. My girl shut up immediately after second. She said it was fake video 😂🤣
Nothing fake about it 👍
@@Donnythelatemodeltech no sir
Great vid bro!! Opened it in less then 1 minute
I like to say thank you you help me get into my 2008 Chevy truck when I really needed it
Thanks so much, much appreciation. Worked fast!
Thank you sooooo much for your video. I am now in my truck...... I could not have done this without your video. You are amazing and a great teacher.
🍻
Watch tons of video, and no one said to bend it. Once I wash your video got my door open super easy. Thanks man
Thanks for the tip.
Very helpful thanks for the vid
Thank you! You just saved me time and money and it was easy 👏🏻 👏🏻
Great explanation!
No on had a slim jim local so I bent a clothes hanger to mimic the what he had and it worked great. Thanks for the vid
Thanks for the video.. Will try it today .
Your the Man U just saved
Me money
Saved me numerous times now! Thank you for the video.
You'd love to have seen this. I pulled up in the liquor store parking lot and there sits a pickup nearly identical to mine. All sorts of guys gathered around it, all big boys and one of them trying unsucessfully to get that door open on that Silverado with a slim jim. I walked up to the crowd, reached through all these guys, stuck my door key into his pickup and opened it, pulled my key back and walked away. They were all standing there just staring at me. I doubt there's more than half a dozen keys for all those millions of pickups. Be sure and try the keys of all your friends if you can.
Lol, funny you say that. I have the jiggle key video coming soon. Lol
@@Donnythelatemodeltech I've opened my door with my ignition key jiggling it. Opened it with another key that was neither one.
Used to start my dad's 64 Biscayne with my 55 Chevy pickup key.
Amazing how worn locks can be jiggled open with any similar key.
My 2000 Silverado has been opened with 4 different keys, and like I said, the ignition key.
You can open nearly any door or ignition with the same make key if you take some time and feel it out.
When I was a kid a quarter would clean out a vending machine. I'd take orders from my friends.
Cold drink machines were a bit harder. I finally learned theft is theft but when you're a tween it was just defeating a lock for fun.
Thanks
😊
Awesome!! My husband and I tried everything. Then a friend had a kit. I decided to watch some videos and came across yours. I got it unlocked in less than 5min. Thank you so much!!
Most welcome 🙏.

Great video after I saw this it took me under 2 mins.
What year is your truck mine is a 2009 xlt and my driver side door will not open inside handle will not work and the outside do you think that slim Jim will still work?
Worked like a charm!
thanks - saved me hours of buggering around, and technique was bang on! thanks for showing door panel that helped a lot and just waiting for it to click into place - soon as i felt that - boom THANK YOU - now just tell me how to stop it rusting and gain value and i'll be golden LMAO
Thanks for sharing Andy!
It worked just how you showed on the video.Awesome video.
I have this tool from hell, but ididn´t know how to use it, now its different thanks to you
Cool
Keys locked in the car. 8 minutes later car us unlocked. THANKS FOR THIS ONE.
Your welcome
With the proper tool and your help. 3 seconds. Done.
Like a lot of others, thank you for sharing this! Saved me $80 and an hours wait in the hot AZ sun in June!
This is a 97 thunder bird supdevill coop that has electricity windows and push buttons for your door locks and I don't know alot about using a slimjim so if you can make your own choices in which part of the door that is what best suits to use the slimjim to get into the car with the best possible way
Thumbs up and subscribed!
Literally just saved my ass thank you man
I've used this video twice successfully. Maybe it's time to get a spare key or teach my dog how NOT to lock the vehicle when exiting. Thanks for the great instructions!
👍
Thanks!
I opened it in 2 seconds THANKYOU
Thank you so much this video saved my butt it worked perfectly ‼️‼️
cost me less than 20 bucks for a slim jim and worked the first time
i have a 93 Silverado and locks are on the insde of the door i. was hoping you had one for real late model trucks .how to do the one with side locks ? is it the same
may God bless you and your family ❤️ thank you 🙏
Thanks got it
I don't see much info for 2015 Silverado online. Similar deal?
Will this work on a 93 chevy 1500 with the horizontal locks? Thanks
Bro YES!!!!!! Took me about 5 minutes after rewatching and noticed I wasn’t doing it right lol
Thank you
Cool. Unlocked! Now you can tow it to the junkyard.
Dang, little bit of chevy hate.
@@Donnythelatemodeltech I own three. And yes..more of a love-hate. Older models I love..but they eventually will just not be repairable. The newer models I absolutely hate. They are DOA. VERY poor design and assembly. But that's just my 2 cents. Your mileage may vary!
Thanks for the comment, stay safe and enjoy your weekend!
I have a 2010 with 300000 miles still runs like new. And everything works with no major repairs. Yea.. totally unreliable and poor build quality...
Any tips for an 05 trailblazer?
Excelente!
Thanks alot.
You save my mony.🌹
THANK YOU!! YOU ARE MY HERO!!! 🥳🎊🌹
Dude! Perfect vid man. I hate air bags in the post
Thanks to you i broke that trimming piece ate the beginnimg...
You ate the trim piece, don't do that! 🤣
It's not anyone else's fault but yours that you are too ham-handed to remove the piece without breaking it.
This happened to me in a remote area with no signal. Had to pry the handle and break the plastic collar over the lock cylinder, could open it with a screwdriver after. New handle - 40 bucks.
Thanks bro
ty
Thanks you just saved me $40.00
Thank you god for posting this. Saved my ass big time.
How did it turn out?
It took longer to watch the video than to open my truck up. And the slim Jim is cheaper than the spar key cost. Now I’m a pro at getting in my truck. Thanks again dude
@@jamespierce1209 lol, cool man!
