I have a 2000 Boxster which I locked in the garage while away on vacation. When I returned neither of my remote key fobs would unlock the doors. I called a German Autoworks repair shop and they told me the car battery must be dead and the only way to open the doors was to pry off the right headlight cover and look for a cable wire to pull which would unlock the doors. I could then jump start the car.

Has anyone had a similar problem? What do you use and how do you pry the headlight cover off?

Thanks for any and all help.
