Take a plastic uni-ball or pilot pen that has a metal clip, bend the clip however you're gonna want it, then yank it off. I filed the sides of the tip to fit it into the lock better. It works pretty well in a bind.

Been done and mentioned many times before but not nearly enough, they tend to mostly use a decent material for both making a make shift pick and wrench from if your into that sort of thing.

that pick was a twisted and tormented hairpin. got it from a girl at school and use pliers to bend and shape it into some sort of pick. look at it:
