Louis' car is a 5ktq with the lock in the center of the trunk, not off to 
the side.

Louis I know your car does have the ski sack (if this is the white one I 
worked on). You'll need to go through the ski sack with something long and 
hooked. If you can pull the mechanism straight forward towards the front of 
the car it should pop the trunk. Another idea though, if you trunk lock is 
on "automatic" mode try locking and un-locking the doors. Assuming the power 
locks work that may unlock the trunk so you can just push the button and 
viola.
