How to unlock the trunk 1990 300 sl dead battery no keys

There is no way without keys unless you find a locksmith or damage the car.

 

[John Laidlaw]

He’s got no keys apparently...

I'm sorry but if you've got no keys we don't want you to be able to open the car.

Get a local yob from the street corner .He will open it for you . No best way is a locksmith . Do you have the buttons showing in the door card tops ? or do they go inside after you turn the key to lock them? . If the buttons stick up you can lift them with a plastic banding tape . Then find a way in to the boot to unlock . Some cars you can remove the number plate drill a small hole just to get in there to pull on the rod that opens the boot lid. Good luck

It's an r129 SL. The boot is a sealed compartment with no access from other areas. There is a bulkhead between passenger compartment and boot and also a fuel tank and folding roof mechanism.
It's also a 1990 car so no internal release. Ergo the only way in is with a key or by damage.

First post on the forum. Asking how to get in a locked car.
No no no.

Take your v5 to dealers and ask them to order you keys.

Think of a way to charge the battery in situ.

Battery will be in the front under the bonnet . May be to go in through the front grill .Easy fix after lots on the bay .

No it's in the boot in an R129, drivers side just behind the wheel arch. There is only one battery.

Won't do any good. Even with a fully charged battery you cannot open the boot without a key.

 

[M80]

So the assumption is that he wnats to get in to the boot to charge the battery, but w/o keys he still has no use of the car so there isn't anything acheived.

If getting to the starter main feed is possible then charging isn't so difficult, even if it's just to provide enough power for remote opening.

The OP's brief post doesn't really tell us much, and it could be iffy to help him. A call to Mark from here might sort this

Do the door pins stick up above the door card or are they hidden ?.

There are no pins. It's a small lever near the door handle (which can easily be operated with a coathanger or similar).

That will only gain access to the car interior and bonnet. With no key there is no way into the boot.
The boot will only release by using the IR fob or physical key. There is no master unlock button or boot release in the car.

Even STAR can't open the boot!

I know of ways to do it but the less said on the forum .
