Well...if there is enough juice in the battery(or find a car with a good one) and it has the power trunk release option you can just pop the trunk with the dash button.
If not, then you need to climb in from the rear seat area and pull or break away the plastic panel that covers up the rear tail panel. If you look at the latch mechanism there will be a little rectangle "break-out" cover for the power trunk release option. Use a flat head screw driver to break out the cover and then push the finger inside to pop the hatch.
If you have a nice cordless drill and a big azz drill bit you can drill out the lock too.

Hi 82knightrider!
If you go back, can you pop the rivits on the front Data Plate and pull it for me?
I collect those for reference.
I can email you my address, and send you something for postage!
If you don't mind!
Ask Alex (82FirebirdTA), I have a huge collection!
Uh, Firebirds only!
Let me know,
George
