I know this is an ancient thread, but from personal experience I will tell anyone looking that breaking into the cabin does indeed disable the controls for trunk and frunk. Don't waste your time and money with that, it won't get you any closer to your keys.
My after the fact hypothesis is that if they locksmith after prying the window ajar had used his reaching tool to tap the trunk release rather than pulling the door release, he might have got me where I needed to be without the hassle and expense of getting the dealer to remove the bumper cover and work his way in. No way to know for sure, but the alarm wasn't going off until after the unlatched the door, so i'm thinking this might indeed have worked........
