The key doesnt unlock the trunk when using it? Sounds like the cables were removed to prevent anyone getting into the trunk without a master key. If the key isnt the original key for the trunk, then you will not be able to open it. Im surprised the trunk release inside the trunk lid didnt work.
Might have to call a locksmith to see if the trunk can be picked. Then, you would have to buy a replacement key cylinder and key. This would mean you need 2 keys. One for the car and the other for the trunk.
