Use the trunk popper switch! If this switch does not work then use needle-nose pliers or a paper clip to momentarily touch the two pins on the switch's connector which are vertically adjacent to each other. If there is a dead or missing battery then a very long flat tip screwdriver can be used to manually turn the latching mechanism which the lock normally does.
P.S if that does not work beat the living crap out of the lock, they are very tough so expect a long fight

Where is trunk release in Pontiac fiero?
The rear "trunk" (decklid) release mechanism is an option, if equipped, and is located on the right side of the dash protrusion on the dash. It will be a switch that shows an opening "trunk". If this switch is not there, then the car was not equipped with rear trunk release. If you are trying to get into a Fiero trunk that does not have a decklid release mechanism or a broken one, and you have lost the keys, then you will have to actually break into the car to open the trunk. Typically, if the outer key switch is remove, you can insert a long screwdriver into the hole and pop the trunk lock.

How can you open the trunk if the battery is dead in a fiero?
Unfortunately, you are in a bad situation. I am assuming that your Fiero is equipped with the decklid release button, where you can push it and the decklid opens and you don't have a key. First, call a locksmith over and have them make a copy of the key for your doors. Expensive, but the safest. The decklid lock and your door locks SHOULD use the same key, unless someone has changed them out over the years. The second option is that you will actually have to break into the "trunk" (decklid). This can be done by removing (destroying) the outer portion of the lock and removing it. Inserting a long flat head screw driver into the hole, working it in, and turning it will pop the trunk. Unfortunately, you will have to do this everytime to open it or replace the lock. The only other option you have is that you can sometimes 'jump' the solenoid for the trunk release from under the car. I unfortunately do not remember it's exact location, but wiring diagrams are available online. If jumped from a fresh battery, you can pop it and it will open. Source: Fiero owner for ten years.
How do you lock the trunk on 1992 Mercedes 190e?
On my 1992 190E I can lock the trunk with any of the keyed locks. If you lock the doors, the trunk locks and if you lock the trunk, the doors lock. In other words all the keyed locks are electrically interconnected. In reality the locks are not electrically interconnected. There is a pump in the right side wheel well of the trunk, it uses vacuum to lock all the locks and pressure to unlock them. Although the pump is powered electrically, the locks are not.
