Battery dead, cannot open the trunk

[DrCactus]

I own a 2001 S myself and the red tab does not work on my car... check in the passenger side rad (corner bumper) and see if you see a silver cable loop sticking through. Pull this cable hard and the front trunk will open (manual hood release).

No need to take off the wheel, just put my arm through?
