You should have two keys. If you have a battery charger it is possible to jack the passenger side up and charge the battery from the starter motor battery cable. Good luck and let use know what happens.

Not sure about jumper cables but if you can reach the starter cable you can attach the negative jumper cable to the closest ground (header bolts ect) so you dont have to wiggle up into the car.
Also, the easier way imho is to goto the dealership with your vin # and have them cut you a key for 10 bucks. No chip in the key so quick and easy. Take some paperwork proving you own the car (insurance card, registration, contract ect ect)

It might work. It could be a problem hooking up the cables in the small space but it's worth a try. Some members have a problem with cables when their attached to the battery so it's not for sure. The cables should be 4 gauge or bigger for best results.
