Help Me!

So I was putting my old radio in because my cd player was stolen last week and now somehow my car wont unlock!!! I disconnected the battery to install the cd player and once I was finished I reconnectred it and shut the hood...tested the radio and it worked so I shut my doors to go inside and when I came back out.....my car wont unlock! My remote will only lock it and I had to replace my doors because of the robbery and I didnt get a chance to switch out the locks. Is there any way of getting in? I can open my trunk, byut i cant find a way to open the back seats. Why would my car only lock itself? Any suggestions? It would be best to not call a locksmith...since Im a poor college kid

Let me get this straight:

1) You changed the doors on the car and you don't have a key for the locks on the new doors?
2) You locked the car with the remote, but now it won't unlock?
3) Therefore you are locked out?

I'm not sure how the USDM central locking works, but if your remote hasn't unlocked it so far, then it's probably not going to. You can't check the wiring until you get into the car anyway.

Make a hook out of stiff wire carefully push it down between the drivers door and the roof. Hook the inner door handle and pull.

Edit: OK, you beat me to it. Glad your problem is solved.
