But the key is a much more elegant solution.

the trunk lock is held in by a clip, and if you pop that and then the lock out, to open the trunk in the future, all you need to do it push down on a little tab

I've had good luck removing the lock cylinders and soaking them in a jar of automatic trans fluid for a few days. Requires a lot of cleaning once the internals are free but if they're frozen, its a viable option. Every spring I use a graphite on each of my lock cylinders to ensure they stay functioning properly.
