Take the ignition switch off the lock and turn it without the key. You don't have to "hotwire" it. This will get it started but you won't be able to drive it because the steering wheel will still lock. You would have to take the ignition lock off the steering column, and to do this you have to drill the mounting bolts out. It would be much easier to just go to the dealer with the serial number and have a key cut

As the ignition and doors are keyed the same remove one of your door locks, take it to a lock-shop, and they can cut you a key for it.

b] What is a "paddock basher", anyhow?

c] where did you leave the keys?

I believe a "paddock basher" is just another word for a "beater" or offroad unlicensed vehicle. Sounds like this kid just wants to do some rip-roaring around the 'ol outback.

How to HOTWIRE!! 200

Hey look under your stearing column. look for a red and green wire. cut em both and rub together. Should work. Those may not be the two colors but it's the wires running into the ignition. Your battery may be dead though.
