Default Lost key, gotta start my car!

I'm stuck at the beach right now! Lost my keys in the water & can't start my car. It's a 2000 civic, can anyone offer advice on moving this thing? Locksmiths want 150 to make a key. Somebody please help!

Give the locksmith $150. That's a good deal.

Looks like I'll have to. I thought I could start it somehow without the key.

Yeah, you could, but you're going to destroy expensive parts in the process.

Starting the engine is easy, [no immobilizer] unlocking the steering is the hard part, and as mentioned you would need to damage things or completely remove the ign. switch housing, not easy without proper tools. 94
