UGH!! Trunk won't open

Remove your rear seat, so you can get at the rear panel between the trunk, and seat. Get some sharp skinny knives, or something similar, and try to move the locks down, at the top. It wont be easy. If you get one down push the panel out, and put something in the gap, work on other side. If you are lucky there might be a gap at the top of panel, to work with. Any way you have to come up with a way to get thru the panel. You might be able to drill some holes in the panel, and make some room to pull the latches down, with a hook, or some thing. You can fill the holes after. Hope this helps.
