Use the Pro-Lok AO-34 MCOT-Narrow Tool and an inflatable wedge to unlock the front passenger door locking mechanism. Begin by inserting the inflatable wedge 12 inches from the front edge of the front passenger door window. Inflate the wedge. Insert the AO-34 tool into the door at eight inches from the front edge of the window glass with the tip facing forward. Lower the tool into the door cavity until the curve is beneath the window glass. Rotate the tool. Deflate the wedge. Carefully raise the car-opening tool into the passenger compartment. Rotate the tool ninety-five degrees counterclockwise and position the tip of the tool in front of the manual lock-unlock button. Rotate the button rearward to unlock the door locking mechanism.

Use the Slide Lock Frameless Tool and an inflatable wedge to unlock the front passenger door locking mechanism. Position the inflatable wedge at the top rear corner of the window glass. Inflate this wedge. Insert the Frameless Tool into the passenger compartment until the tip is positioned against the lock-unlock rocker. Use the tip of the tool to pull on the rocker in order to unlock the door locking mechanism. Open the door using the outside door handle.

Use the Tech-Train Productions TT-1032 car-opening tool and two wedges. To open the front passenger door, insert the first wedge forward of the inside handle. Insert the second wedge rearward of the inside handle. Carefully insert the TT-1032 tool into the door between the two wedges with the tip facing towards the rear of the vehicle. Lower the tool until the upper bend of the tool is beneath the bottom of the window glass. Rotate the tool slightly clockwise and raise the tool along the inside of the glass. When the tool's upper bend is just visible above the weather stripping, stop and remove the two wedges. Failure to remove the wedges can result in breaking the glass.

Continue to raise the tool until the tip is inside the passenger compartment. Maneuver the tool until the tip contacts the forward side of the inside lock control rocker. Manipulate the tool towards the rear of the vehicle to unlock the door locking mechanism.

The direction to rotate the front driver's door lock plug to the unlocked position is counterclockwise. There is no door lock in the front passenger door.
