[s-cars] urS4 trunk won't open; how to search s-cars archives?

[Karasaki Family]

I remember seeing this discussed previously but I'm not finding it with the high level search engine on Audifans.com.
 
Stupid trunk was getting harder and harder to open, like the latch was getting stuck. Finally, yesterday at 31 deg. F, it refused to open period!
 
With the key, with the doors unlocked, I do not have an IR remote for this car, etc. Stuck.
 
My kid can crawl into the trunk because I don't have the ski sack installed.  But he's 8 and has no mechanical skills, so I have to be more than clear as I verbally walk him through whatever needs to be done.
 
This is for a 1992 urS4 sedan.
 
Any help is appreciated.
 
Thanks!
