well that is interesting. If your top is up the electronic lockout should have been disengaged anyway. When you try to open the trunk do you get a "floppy handle"? it moves but nothing engages? If so, the pneumatic pawl assembly accessed through the left side is not engaged Watch that part of the video again and see if you can move the pawl into place. Lastly if for some reason the electronic block on the right did not retract on its own the last time you raised the top, the i would drill a hole large enough to get e screwdriver in to move it manually. It take almost no pressure.
