Depending on the year, you can cut a tennis ball in half and place around the outside key entry. If you cut it well and it can seal to the door, you can press the ball acting like a plunger. This can force enough air into the hole to pop the lock open.

I’m not saying it’s gonna work, but’s it’s easy to try

That’s cool! I got the trunk open from the inside and removed the lock cylinder. I’m just looking to have it keyed

This only works on cars that have a vacuum lock system. Mostly German from the late 70s to early 2000s.
