My car is parked in a position that cannot get to it without being able to put me in neutral and move it to put it on a trailer. I need to know how to get it shifted from Park to Neutral so that I can move the car and get it put on a trailer. I lost my keys and do not have my keys. How can I do this without breaking my car completely. Quickest and easiest fastest way. Please help me with this problem. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

Good afternoon,

I attached a picture of where the shift cable attaches to the transmission. The end of the cable just releases with a screwdriver. It pops up in the air. Then you can turn the lever manually to get it out of the park.
