Hi dudes,
I am facing a very stupid problem but it really makes me suffer, so could any one of you help me?
I just accidentally locked my key in the trunk, (the car not yet locked)
However, when I returned to my driver seat and tried to open the trunk through the push-down button in the driver seat. It didn't work as I think it was because of the car could not detect my key there. and I can't turn on the engine though.

Do anyone of you know how to activate the open the trunk without the key with me?

Really appreciated!!

Fold the back seat down and reach into the trunk.

Hi
First of all really appreciated on your help..
Can you describe how do the levers look like? Since I didnt find anything that work...
Mine is 2007 G35 coupe, can your method be applied on it?

Again really thanks so much!

Behind the console (where the crease is) there should be a red strap. You may have to dig for it, but it is there. Pull on it and it should get your seats to fold down.

(Sorry, I didn't realize you had an 07. The earlier G35's had a lever, yours has a strap).

Stick your hand in and feel for a strap. it won't be on the crease, it'll be in the crease.

Is that I need to put my hand into the "standing rectanglar" part of the console area to feed for a strap?

You're looking for this red strap at the seat fold. Give it a tug and the seat back folds down.
