Locked my keys in the trunk!! HELP, HELP!!

2002 Cabriolet CLK 320. Earlier today i locked my keys in the trunk. I called roadside asst. and they came and opened the door from the inside via inside handle. Ofcourse the alarm went off and disabled the trunk lock. Also could not get in the trunk from inside the car. Went all the way home and tried to find my spare key and u guessed it, couldnt find it. What should i do? dealer doesnt open until monday morn. I am about to have it towed to my home. dont wanna leave it parked in the city till monday. any suggestions ? Please Help. About to take the long trip back to the car.

if you have rear seats that drop... then you can pull this knob from behind the headrests, and force them to drop...

I think it takes a while to get a new key made. Something about Mercedes having to code the key from somewhere else and then shipping it to your dealership.

I locked my key in my trunk once (99 CLK) and roadside assistance came out and got into the trunk. They did it without the key. You should ask them about it and see what they can do for you.

you picked the total wrong car to lock your keys in the trunk, for this you will either be buying a new key or a new tail light, only way to get in there is bust the tail light, this is coming from a year of roadside experience, sorry man
