Any guidance as to a more specific location behind the wheel well liner I might be able to find the emergency release cable? Would it be more toward the rear of the car from the coil spring mount or in front of it? I tried contorting myself in every which way to pry away any part of the liner I could get hold of attempting to find the cable. It's doing a good job of eluding me. Unfortunately, removing the wheel may not be an option since (sure enough) the wheel lock is safely stowed in the front trunk :-( As an aside I was able to locate the rear engine cover release to open that up thought it doesn't help me much. That one was quite easy to find....cable is behind the drivers side tail light. I know I only have myself to blame but I REALLY wish whoever shut my trunk would have just kept their hands off my car... Any other ideas? Thanks, AJ

OK...This I'm sure qualifies as the idiot award for the day but here is my problem: Battery was dead on my 03 996 Coupe. I decided to remove and fully charge overnight. I was able to get enough juice to the car (via fuse panel jumper and door latch) to open my front trunk and remove battery. I then made sure to only partially close trunk (not latched) so that I could get back in there. Well, yesterday someone (I'm sure with the best intentions) decided to close my trunk fully for me. Thanks a lot! So here I am w/ no battery in the car and I just tried to power and open trunk using an external charger connected to fuse panel jumper and door latch...nothing. I'm thinking no battery in the car means the circuit is left open and power is not circulating through the electrical system. Anyway, my question is: can I somehow manually open the front trunk? is there a release cable hidden somewhere (maybe inside the wheel well?) that could open the front trunk. Someone please tell me there is a way to get out of this mess that is not too painful/expensive. Thanks for any help/suggestions. AJ
