Now take yourself and get another key (or two) made for the car. Hopefully this is lesson learned, and glad you got it done.

Uh, you know you can just bypass the trunk switch right? lol

A lot easier than any of this crawling through the trunk business. You still need the locksmith to open the car up for you. After that, just get under the driver side kick panel and unplug the connector going to the trunk switch. There's one green one and a black one. Forgot which goes to which, but the plug you need to pull is going to be the one right behind the trunk button. Just get a wire and jump the 2 terminals in that connector you just disconnected and the trunk will pop open
