Just thought I'd pass this on. The trunk lock on one of my parts cars was frozen in the locked position and no key. To get into the trunk without damaging the lid took some thinking as there was no way into the trunk. No holes to go through. Knowing that a new lock was going to replace the old one I decided to drill a small hole in the lock between the push button and the handle. Using a 3/16 drill bit to make the hole all the way through and then using a 1/8 bit in reverse to slide in and push the latch hook open. It was a breeze! Naturally the outer latch was ruined, but it's a lot cheaper than a lid. I have enclosed some photos. Their not the best, but you'll get the idea. The bottom photo shows a slight cut at the lower edge of the latch hole. It is easily covered with a new latch. Keep the drill hole as low as you can and in the center side to side. Mine is slightly off, but it worked. PJ
