I'm worried I might break something if I try that but I don't want to pay a locksmith who might not even do it without proof of ownership. I have the keys but they don't fucking work.
Plus I don't want to wait until Monday .

You are fucking retarded if you can't open the car with a coat hanger.

Go buy a bottle of extra strength febreeze. Spray down the seats and carpets. Let it sit for a day. Then go drive around with your windows down to lessen the strength of the smell.

Turns out the locksmith was available today. I'd rather pay $60 to not break anything.
