So your 200 is out in the rain is it?
Isn't there any holes used when replacing shocks? On my B3, some time ago, I opened boot that way.

Default Boot Opened!!

Thanks for all the advice - eventually got in using the spare key. I just had to rub it down with a scotch pad for about an hour until it was very 'worn'.

Nothing beats the feeling of smashing your own rear light...I've done it! But I suppose your way was good too.
