Keys in trunk, trunk release button won't work

I locked my keys in my trunk in my '05, and the trunk release button to the left of my steering wheel isn't working. I can fit my arm through the gap in the seats to the trunk, but don't know where the emergency trunk release or seat release buttons are. I can't find any pictures or diagrams to help.

The truck release is on the opposite side of the lock cylinder. The back seat release cables are pretty much right under the rear speakers

Yeah you might have to brake some clips to get the back seat release

Maybe a blown fuse for the trunk release

TRUNK/OUTLET fuse, 20 amp in underhood fuse block

Use a stick or rod and push one of the cable releases through the gap.
