worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but it never really gets you anywhere

Can't you get in the boot? Charge the battery by connecting the charger to the boot light.

ive had the same problem but as mines a cab i can get a piece of wire in the window and pull the door pin up to open the door. Lucky people wont be able to do much if they ever get in as they will need the key fob to drive off with it 
How do you get in through the passenger front grill then?
The bloke who had it before me said that he had to call out the AA and they ended up charging the battery through the alternator underneath the car, how much hassle would that be?!?!?!

Easy enough. Clip the charger red lead on the starter motor outside large terminal and the black lead to the car body.t11mfn wrote:ive had the same problem but as mines a cab i can get a piece of wire in the window and pull the door pin up to open the door.
