W208 Boot release

[Martyn Cannon]

Hi My wife have left her car untouched for weeks
The battery is now flat and we cannot access the car as the metal key has been long gone
Anyone know how to get the boot open so that we can jump start the car

Could you not power the car up from the pos on the starter motor and a neg point on the body. Enough to allow the key to open the door or boot.

Did read an article about someone who removed the rear number plate, drilled a 20mm hole behind to access the release cable. Re fitted a weather proof grommet and put the number plate back on.

So my W208 has come back to me after my son thrashing it around for a year
Needed some new tyres and breaks to be expected I supposed

Now he seems to have blown the front speakers any idea of a cheap fix to replace the front door speakers and is it easy to replace them

Rear speakers seem to be fine
