Default Keys in trunk

So locked my keys in the trunk, The only key I have, stupid move I know. Tried to use the trunk relese when the guy from roadside got in the car but its disabled. Trunk is NOT locked, just shut. Email Sewell Lexus and they sold me a wallet key cut to my VIN but the trunk lock in back doesnt turn, neither will the drivers door. However it does work on the lock for the trunk, And I KNOW the key I locked in the trunk works on that and the door.

Is there anyway to get into this damn trunk? There is too much stuff in it too fish the keys out.

I read a while back of a guy going thru the back seat, but I did not follow up to see if he made it I ALWAYS HAVE OR GET TWO KEYS...

Well its looking like I am going to just order a master key now for 70. I would have done that in the first place if they would have just told me to buy that to get in the trunk, but sewell said the wallet key would work.

I think the gas tank is just behind the back seat and prevents access to the trunk.

this was true but the person had some long (3 foot) reach fingers he was going to try and trip the switch with or pick up the keys with, like these..
