Hey, Tabitha, how are you? It\'s called slim jim, not jim slim, lol. What you do is slide it down into door past the outside of window, kind of wiggle and twist it around, hopefully to catch the rod that runs from the lock button to the lock mechanism on the door latch. If the hook catches it, give it a slight jerk and the rod will unlock the door. Not always successful, but I\'ve seen it work wonders on older cars. Good luck. Next choice is a lock smith.

How to unlock 1998 mustang with a slim jim?

When you slide the slim Jim in between the glass and the door skin line up your slim Jim so it points towards the door lock button. Gently lift up while watching the door lock button. If you see it wiggle you are on the right track. You may have to bend the slim Jim a little to get it to hook the correct rod. Be patient and you will get it. It take a little practice. I used to repo cars and was pretty good at it. Like I said just keep at it.

Keys are locked in car and dont want to pay for aaa. I have slim jim how do I unlock door with it?

A lot of newer cars can't be opened with a slim jim anymore. A good kit uses a small bag that inflates with air to allow a long rod to unlock (electric door locks) These work much better.
