Disconnected battery, closed trunk. HELP
Ok, so i feel like the dumbest person in the world right now

If I remember correctly , you have a emergency release under the shifter boot. Read your manual.
Have you tried the release from inside the cabine with the button at the bottom of the driver's door ? Or maybe you can't even open the doors ?

Had the exact same problem last week! I'd say it would be good to mention it in all the "how to remove ECU" guides. My car is black and the key hole was black. Would have never found it if it wasn't for users on this board. Even knowing where it was it was tough to find he he

Not a Big deal, pop your hood and on the passenger side you can see a red tab that you can slide over. Once you do that get a battery pack or jumper cables and hook up the positive to that and the ground to the copper pin on the shock tower and open your trunk.
