How to open trunk with dead battery
Hi,
I finally bought a portable battery jump starter so I don't have to wait hours for AAA to show up.
But how do I open the trunk if the battery is dead to get it out?
Any ideas? Thanks!

You guys are backass!
I did confirm the keyslot above the license plate on the left. I check that it works with the key. It was covered in "gunk", but I wiped it off with my fingers and the trunk opened. I didn't actually disconnect the battery to see if it works with a dead/disconnected battery, but knowing it's there is enough for me.
Now I can jump my battery with my cheap portable battery charger the next time the cop pulls me over and I leave my lights on and drain my battery while chatting with the cop (I only got a warning).
Thanks, ClubLexus!
