I locked my keys in the car, and had a guy come out to unlock it, the alarm
sounded and now I can not get my car to start, the security light is on, i
do not have the remotes for it any longer, what can I do?

Unlock the car with the key in the driver side door. If that does not
work disconnect the battery and wait a few minutes for the battery to
drain in the on-board computer. Then re-connect the battery and you
should be good to go...

If it is a system similar to the one in my 240sx, look up under the dash for
a little red Radio shack button. It will be placed such that you can just
reach it with the tip of your foot if you know where it is. Hold that
button in while you try to start it and it should start.

the keys have to be reprogrammed by the dealer or a locksmith, locksmith
cost 275 to come to the house, dealer is $48 but you have to get the car
to them, I used the road side service of my cell phone for the towing
witch didnt cost a dime, reprogrammed the keys in about 3 mins, and i was
on my way, thanks to all who tried to help me in here
