I am not sure about the 1988 but I was searching for an answer about a 2003 Seville STS and could not find information - So....I just tried with a Slim Jim i bought at a gun show and was able to unlock the drivers door in about 1 minute. The process was to insert the Slim Jim under the weather molding right in the bottom right side of the window. I inserted about 3.5-5 inchs of the tool down into the door frame and wiggled it around until it found the latch - i could tell i had the latch because when i moved the Slim Jim the look moved inside the door. with and upward thrust of about 10 punds It raised the locked door.
