To open the boot of a Mercedes CLK when it is locked, you need to unscrew the screws securing the trim around the number plate light. Once this trim has been removed and the number plate bulb has been disconnected, you can access the internal components from its housing.

The bonnet actuator cable will be present, which should be gently pulled to unlock the latch. This will allow you to lift the boot of the car, providing access to the interior of the boot.
