So in regard to this post - I have the same problem -
My Key will not work, and the valet switch appears to be flipped as I cannot release the trunk using the floor pull or the remote.

Unlike LAURAQ - I CAN NOT cut a hole in my speaker deck! Thats just not an option...... My svt is my baby....!
There simply must be another way to get into my trunk....... I've tried to take out the seats by removing the star (torx) bolts holding to no avail - It seems the angle they are aimed at makes it very difficult to unbolt them as the seat padding is in the way.........

Anyone have any other Ideas?? I'm at a loss here! Thanks.
