Default Opening my trunk

I'm sure this question has been asked before but i was too lazy to search...Is there a possible way to open your trunk when the car is running??? I hate having to turn my car off to open my trunk...is there something I'm missing. My car is a MT.

theres 3 ways to open the trunk, im know at least one of them has to work while the car is running.

1: key fob, doesnt work
2: button above license plate, maybe?
3: emergency release button, but that requires you to be half in the trunk already...

Did you try to unlock the doors, then push the button above the license plate? Not sure if that would work. It feels like piece of rubber if you are trying to figure out where it is.

Uh, yes there is. Look again. If you can't find it look in your owner's manual.

Why do manufacturer's even bother giving owner's manuals anymore?

Did you know you can use the key FOB to roll down the windows too when the car is off? Or insert the key into the lock and turn it so the windows roll back up?

Its possible that people buy their 350Z used and do not have an owners manual.
