How do you get into the trunk of a 1997 Chevy Lumina without key?

Getting into the trunk of a 1997 Chevy Lumina without a key is difficult and may require professional assistance. There's no easy "backdoor" method like some cars have. Your options are limited and risky:

* Through the back seat: Some Lumina models might allow access to the trunk latch mechanism through the rear seat fold-down. Check if your model has this feature and if the latch is accessible.

* Professional Locksmith: This is the safest and most reliable option. A locksmith has specialized tools to open the trunk without causing damage.

* Roadside Assistance: If you have roadside assistance coverage, they can usually send someone to help you open your trunk.

Things to Avoid:

* Forcing or damaging the trunk: Attempting to pry or break the trunk open will likely cause significant damage and potentially cost more than a locksmith.

* Damaging the car body: Trying to access the trunk through other parts of the car could lead to scratches, dents or broken components.

Important Note: Before attempting anything, ensure the car is securely parked and you are not in a dangerous situation. If you suspect someone is trying to steal your car, contact the police immediately.
