Hi, I took my 88 900 classic in for inspection and emissions, (passed!). The 'tech' left the key in the car which I didn't think much about, it was in visible sight and I was just paying the bill and going to leave right away. I got home and now I can't get the key out! I think the tech must have tried to turn it or remove it or something weird while he was testing the car, but either way, the key won't come out. It will turn and start the car and everything else, but no matter what, it won't come out. I tried some lubes to see if it was just sticking, but it feels like it's 'locked' in, you know, before you put in in reverse to remove it. (Yes, I know about that, I've had the car for a year now!) So, I've read the manual and have decided to remove the center console and get the key out that way and also to see what is 'jamming' it up. However, the manual, Bentley, indicates that I will need a 'special' tool to remove several of the bolts. Is it really a 'special' tool or just a deep-wall socket or something? Or is there a 'home DYI fix for this? Thanks in advance, (and hoping no one looks in the car!), Brandon Thomas 1988 C900 16v
