There is a wire cable behind the front right wheel that will manually open the front trunk if your battery were to die. However, it is a total pain to access (especially with the steering lock engaged), so a lot of owners relocate the cable to the front tow cap for easier access. Rerouting the cable requires removing the bumper.

If your car has OEM wheel locks, one of the five lugs on each wheel will look different, with around head instead of a regular hex head. The wheel lock key (like the one pictured above) is required to remove the wheels locks. There are several different lock patterns, so they are not interchangeable.
