Hi folks I have one question, how can I unlock my car with manual key to open the hood, I was out of country for 4 months, and before I left I removed the battery terminal from under the hood locked my car and went for trip, now I need to install battery terminals but for that I have to open the hood, and my honda 2017 civic is locked, I do have keyfob, but main thing is how to get in the car?? Is there any key slot available where I can manually insert the key and open the driver side door??

Yes. Otherwise it wouldn't be provided. Check underneath the actual door handle. If not there, refer to your owners manual

In the future, I suggest you consider purchasing a battery tender and leave the car "plugged in" while you are away from the car for extended periods of time instead of removing battery cables. I use the CTEK 4.3 on my "rarely driven" vehicles and they are magical... and very affordable.

Your keyhole should be in the drivers door handle. What model did you get? I thought they were all there.
