GreetingsCustomer

I know at the ford dealer I worked at we did that and I suppose if you go to your selling dealer it would be less of a problem. I would try to use a slim jim(thin piece of metal used to slid behind the window to activate the lock) or a kit most tow truck drivers(shops) have. Some lock smiths might have it too. The kit has different rods bent at different angles, these go under and around the window and activate the lock or handle to open the door. You might be able to purchase this kit a parts stores. I would ask some shops in your area, even the local AAA.

Good luck Mike
