I could be wrong but I think through 97 if you have a dull key from a different car it could unlock the door

if you have another older car try the key from that. I've heard it works but have never tried it.

Pry the door frame on top of the window and stick a wooden wedge in there. Now you can get a coat hanger or a stiff piece of wire and hook the door unlock button. If you bend the window frame too much, you can bend it back when you get the door open.

you could get another key cut by a saturn dealer.....no door bending involved....sounds like he'll need a spare if he's locked the keys in it and it's not even his yet....

is that where you hit a tennis ball at the window hard enough until the window shatters and you can reach in and get the keys?

Exactly...... I mean close..... burn a hole in the tennis ball put it over your keyhole and push extremely hard. the air pressure is supposed to push the locking mechanism to unlock the door. Im not sure if it works, but cheaper than a recut key.

that's bizarre -- wouldn't expect a perpendicular air pulse to rotate a mechanical device -- but hey, if it's on youtube it must be true, no? I'll wait for the report back...
