hmm what a pain in the arse... the only other way i know is to jump on the roof real hard the car will think its in a rollover and unlock the doors :p (its a safety mechanism) but i dont think you want to be doin that :p

Has anybody actually tried that? I heard it was a rumor to turn ppl off commodores... saying that they were an easy target for thieves

Ive had windscreens removed becuase of small stone chips and they come out in one piece so there wont be no need for smashing the windscreen ,but smashing one is a lot fun and releaves the frustration of not be able to get in

ok.
this has been tested on a VT and a VX so i cant see a VY being any different.
with the car fully deadlocked, it can still be opened by unlocking it with the car key itself.

take your VIN number from the windscreen and proof that you own the car and go to Holden and ask for your key number.
take that number to any locksmith and $28 later youll have a key in your hand.
put the key in the door and turn it - you are now in your car.

RACV obviously dont know **** about how the security system works.

I bet it wasnt removed from the outside only... lol

smashing is more fun... but try holden's for a keycut... you won't need the remote to unlock the car.

The hazard lights come on and the doors unlock when the SRS system is deployed, but that won't happen if the car isn't running.

The windscreen may cost $200 + but you get a new screen out of it without any other damage if its done right

Are you really serious? Have you ever tried to break in through a laminated screen?

It's bloody hard to do, dangerous because of the risk of serious cuts, leads to small glass shards all over the interior, down the demister vents....

The cheapest window to break would be the rear quarter, but if the car is deadlocked, you still wouldn't be able to open the door.

Good luck!
