im pissed. I cant get into my celica. I have a 94 ST coupe. I have manual door and windows so i cant get in without opening the door without the key. I cant get in its frozen. I bought de-icer (WD-40). and the lock is turning 1-2 way. When i look inside at the door latch its opening and locking but opening 1/2 way. I tried the same with the trunk. Ive gotten into the trunk but i cant get into the passenger compartment. How do i get into the car?? is it possible to get into the car through the trunk, how do i pull the seats down from the trunk??

I had the same problem. It had snowed alot but then the next day the temp rose to 50 something degrees. By that night the temp dropped again and all the snow that had melted turned to ice and froze so I couldn't even open my doors, hood, or trunk even tho they were unlocked. I had to wait a couple of days to get into my car.
