Default Looking for a locksmith in the Inland Empire

Anyone know of a real good locksmith I can't get into my trunk.I had the trunk changed and was using the trunk release but during the summer the cable expanded in the heat and now I can't open it. The couple of locksmiths I found was talking about drilling out the lock but I prefer another key can someone help thanks.

Yeah cause when I ran into the house the floor mat was under the trunk release latch for like thirty minutes in triple digit weather but before that it was fine.

The cable is metal inside. You would need to heat it up way more then that to get it to stretch, and it would break before it stretched.

I had this problem then when i got into the trunk some how i had flipped the cancel lever up on the lock part which makes the popper lever in the car useless. Make sure the cancel switch is not flipped up! And take out your back seats yourself!
