need help with trunk

[dimasbenz]

so i bought a car today bmw that i want to part out
and i noticed it has alot of things in the trunk
the catch is i have no key nor do i want to get it cut because that will make me dash more money towards the car which i dont have
i want to open the trunk... what is the best way to get that sucker open without a key because i want to know what is in the trunk.
and i also want to take off my back tail lights so either way the trunk has to come off..

please all you pros let me know
i am familiar with e36 but never dealt with e30
what do i have to do ?

Ummm... lol.. Alright, just unlock the car push the truck lock in, and the truck lid should pop up.. pretty simple.

[dimasbenz]

hehe
no man for some reason it does not open something is stuck
any other suggestions my friend?

[W2WDETAILING]

if you take off the back seat there is a sheet of metal tacked in that covers the ski hole pass thru pry it off and you will have a decent viewing hole and you stick a light in since your parting it why dont you just cut up that panel?

[craz azn]

drill out the lock

its easy, and fun

[dimasbenz]

okay thanks guys for your suggestions
i am getting the car tomorrow and i will for sure will do one of those options
i cant wait to see what is in the trunk!!

the trunk does need to be open for me to take out the tail lights, is that rite?

[craz azn]

yes

If it's being parted, cut the trunk open with an angle grinder.

Don't try and unlock it with a hammer... Trust me.
