After two days of owning my 2000 Boxster I locked the only key in the trunk at a store, with the top down, and the doors locked, with a storm coming in a few hours. Needless to say I was frustrated by every lock smith in the yellow pages saying the same discerning thing “You cannot break into that trunk.” I had the car towed on a flat bed and placed in my garage. I spent six hours armpit deep in that rear bumper searching for this mysterious lifesaving cable. Sadly, it does not exist in my car because I was able to find the hole where it is supposed to come out of. I ordered a new key to the tune of $475 and listened to my wife complaining about how I am buying new flowers to plant because hers are dying in the trunk. Even if you break into the cabin, all you have achieved is breaking into the cabin. You will not be able to open your trunk. An actuator renders the pull levers useless if the car is locked.
