In this tutorial video, you will find instructions to open the doors without the remote, using just the key on a Volkswagen Golf Mk7. First, remove the plastic cover on the external opening handle; use the key or a thin object to pry it off from the bottom, as shown in the video.

Once the cover is removed, access the key lock, where you simply need to insert the key and turn to unlock the vehicle; of course, repair the remote afterwards!
