I take it the key just wouldn't turn in the trunk lock itself? Well, you
can't get in through the back seat due to the sheet metal, so the cheapest
route would be to break out the lock; taking care not to damage any sheet
metal. They're easy to install, and around 15$US used. Of course, a little
lock de-icer might be in order before we get too rash...
