If you can reach the emergency release cable, it's the best way to open the trunk.
BTW: If you ever remove the front bumper cover - say to clean the radiators, consider relocating the cable to the two hook hole. I did and can release the hood now in less than 30 seconds. I did the same for the rear emergency release by locating the cable to behind the bumperette. Takes a couple of minutes to open the rear with the cable now. Both changes sure beat having to remove the fender liner to get to the cables.
