No key for the hatch

I just got a 86 t top. Sport coupe. I have no key to open the hatch. The car has no motor and wiring in the engine bay is a bit of a mess.

Is there a way to manually open the hatch so I can change lock cylinders? I'm changing door cylinders as well.

I remeber going through the inside of my car and using a flat head screwdriver to open my hatch on my 89 trans am. Don't remember if the inside panel was off or not.
