I can not tell you how to get it open but I can give you some great advice. When you get it open and the new cable on, tie a thin piece of stainless steel wire into the hole on the latch and run the other end over to the little knob that is used for a hood spacer. In the future if you ever have a broken cable again just pull the wire real hard and your trunk is open. This is a great back up plan.
