Trunk Won't Open

Trunk Won't Open
A self-inflicted wound but nonetheless I need some help.
I had a towel in the trunk to protect it from some dirty cargo and managed to close the trunk while the towel was covering the latch mechanism...now I can't get the trunk open. Seems that the fabric has been wedged in there good and the mechanism won't release.
Other than taking it to the dealer, does anyone have an suggestions as to how I can get it to release...preferably without breaking anything.
Thanks,
Chris

Have to watch that you don't jam the lock. Give a quick shot of grease afterwards on the lock side. #4
