Default Need help with unlocking front trunk

Ok here is a fun one. Was in progress of building my 987.2 race car. Have pulled electric front trunk mechanism and was using cable to open. Accidentally closed the trunk before I removed lock and installed hood pins. Manual Cable the I use to release lock usually snapped and I can't gain access to trigger internal lock to release. Have gone in from front bumper opening thinking I could trigger release from there but latch doesn't release the lock mechanism.

Is only way to get to release lock to pull bumper? Or is there a strategic place I can put a screwdriver to pop lock open? If I have to pull bumper it's a pain as I have to remove bumper cover support from inside bumper. Was hoping there is a way to easily pop open front trunk lock without the manual cable.
