If the windows are up, the dash button. Then when the doors are closed, the trunk lid pops up a bit. Works for me.

I thought it was the hood
, I generally use fob if I'm outside the car and interior release if I'm inside car.

The question is not how you open the trunk, but how you close it. One day I read the manual and it says ALWAYS close the trunk by pushing down on the badge (for my coupe).

The original owner told me to NEVER open the trunk, and there's a partition in the back and a funny smell...

My coupe has a rear hatch? WFT?
I use the fob or the inside release - whichever is handy at the time. To shut the trunk, I open either door and then gently shut the trunk.
